"Yon", as in "But look, the morn, in russet mantle clad, Walks o'er the dew of yon high eastward hill." from Hamlet, is a shortened form of "yonder" which means "the one over there", and which we of course recognize from "What light from yonder window breaks" and other more modern uses. As an abbreviated form, Shakespeare uses "yon" rather less than "yond".
