Count not that far that can be had,

Count not that far that can be had,
Though sunset lie between —
Nor that adjacent, that beside,
Is further than the sun.

The sunset is an obstacle to measure the distance of neighboring stars. There may be another star behind the sun.

Don’t measure how far two neighbor stars be,
Though the sunset lie between them—
Nor the adfacent star is
Further than the sun.
