[1913 Webster]

All the horizon round
Invested with bright rays. --Milton.
[1913 Webster]

2. (Astron.)
(a) A plane passing through the eye of the spectator and
at right angles to the vertical at a given place; a
plane tangent to the earth's surface at that place;
called distinctively the sensible horizon.
(b) A plane parallel to the sensible horizon of a place,
and passing through the earth's center; -- called also
rational horizon or celestial horizon.
(c) (Naut.) The unbroken line separating sky and water, as
seen by an eye at a given elevation, no land being
visible.
[1913 Webster]

5. The limit of a person's range of perception, capabilities,
or experience; as, children raised in the inner city have
limited horizons.
