The themes, wind has long been viewed as part and parcel of the divine. Rushing through the trees, incapable of being contained, sometimes gentle and sometimes destructive, the wind stands as one of the most enduring embodiments of the divine in the human imagination, especially for a Christian like Christina Rossetti, for whom wind would have been equated with God’s Holy Spirit. The holy spirit or wind is the source of faith and creation, in much the same vein as the sublime. Finally, then, the poem suggests that not only is the wind sublime; but the sublime itself is the God in nature. As the poem trails off, and the tone softens, it seems as if the speaker in fact has become like the tree, bowing down in the presence of the divine wind.
