sky-born (not comparable)

  1. (poetic) Originating in the sky or heavens.
    • 1893, William Henry Venable, Let Him First be a Man: And Other Essays, page 108:
      Purer than the mountain dew, whiter than sky-born flakes be the atmosphere of education. The sentiment and the language of instruction should be such that no blot or stain can touch the soul of the pupil.
