What the speaker is saying here is that being moved
farther apart does not make him and his love any less connected. He is likening their
love to gold. He is saying that both of them can be spread out into a very, very thin
layer but that does not ruin them. Instead, it actually expands them (he says) -- it
makes them cover more of an area.
So this is another way in
which the speaker illustrates the main idea he is trying to make in the poem -- that
physical separation cannot diminsh their love.
