Thoughts are a kind of strange celestial creature

That when they're good, they're such in every feature.

They bear the image of their Father's face,

And beautify even all His dwelling-place:

So nimble, volatile, and unconfined,

Illimited, to which no form's assigned,

So changeable, capacious, easy, free,

That what itself doth please a thought may be.

From nothing to infinity it turns,

Even in a moment: Now like fire it burns,
