Kinds of light unlike any other

 It is not down in any map; true places never are.
-Herman Melville 

And:
The eyes open to a cry of pulleys,
And spirited from sleep, the astounded soul
Hangs for a moment bodiless and simple
As false dawn.
-Richard Wilbur, excerpt from the poem, “Love Calls us to the Things of This World”
