This passage is from the poem Meghaduta by Kalidasa. Yaksha, the nature spirit, is asking the cloud to send a message to his wife. How can a cloud so moving, mixed and got
of water vapour, fire and wind be used
by Yaksha appropriately as messenger?
But he in eagerness and grief confused
mistakes as sentient a thing that's not.

Such clouds the ending of the world presage;
you minister to form at will. Though kin
I plead for are by power detained, better
to be by majesty refused than win
an approbation of base parentage.

I ask you, shelter from the sun's fierce glare,
as one apart, beneath Kubēra's sanctions,
to bear this message to a loved one waiting
in Alakā, where Shiva on those mansions
sheds gardens’ moonlight from his forehead there.

–Meghaduta,
Kalidasa (translated by Colin John Holcombe)
