Starting a new stanza, the author speaks of the space as a celestial bough. www.dictionary.com refers to a bough as a tree branch or arm, especially a large one. But if you look a little harder, an archaic (old, and generally no longer used) definition calls a bough another name for a gallows, or a form of execution.
