Enjambment will occur in the middle of sentence where a sentence is split up between two lines without any sort of punctuation. The sentence is sort of “jammed” to fit into two lines. Thus, when looking for enjambment, we’ll be looking for a complete sentence that takes up more than one line and is missing punctuation at the end of the first line to where it (without pause) continues into the next line. That said, there are actually three instances of enjambment within the poem:
In these two lines, the idea of a breathless nun is enjambed:
The holy time is quiet as a Nun
Breathless with adoration; the broad sun
In these two lines, the notion of the sinking sun is enjambed:
Breathless with adoration; the broad sun
Is sinking down in its tranquility;
In these two lines, the idea of motion making a sound is enjambed:
And doth with his eternal motion make
A sound like thunder—everlastingly.
