God's poet is silence! His song is unspoken And yet so profound, and so loud, and so far, That it thrills you and fills you in measures unbroken— The unceasing song of the first morning star....

In these lines Miller casts silence as a divine “poet,” suggesting that the deepest spiritual or aesthetic truths are not always carried by articulated language. The paradox—an “unspoken” song that is nevertheless “profound,” “loud,” and far-reaching—points to experiences that overwhelm ordinary speech: awe before nature, mystical intuition, or the felt presence of the sacred. By invoking “the first morning star,” he ties this silent music to cosmic order and dawn-beginnings, implying an original, continuous harmony that precedes human utterance. The passage elevates quietude from mere absence of sound to an active, shaping force that can “thrill” and “fill” the listener with an unbroken measure.
