    True. This demonstrates enjambment.

    Explanation:

    Enjambment is the continuation of a sentence without a pause beyond the end of a line, couplet, or stanza.

    The line break between "the night" and "Of cloudless" does not interrupt the continuation of the sentence, so we say the line is enjambed.

    The alternative would be an end-stopped line, such as "Of cloudless climes and starry skies;"
