To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The courage of my soul I ne'er shall tame, For if vsre shun even a moment's fame. Who then are we to battle with the skies ? Shall I conceal my true capacities. And shall I hesitate even to name My feelings? My own thoughts put me to shame, Fearing, like swallows, from the earth to rise.
For here 'tis futile to be timorous; Boldly to speak the truth becometh each Who soon shall rest in his sarcophagus.
In after times men w^ill my soul beseech In Paradise, and justify me thus: In thought so grea...t, how were he mean in speech ?
(1826) XVI THIS land of toil I leave without a sigh; From harsh subjection there is no release Where man, oppressed by troubles, knows no peace, Though destined to oblivion by and by. We have indeed advantages. Here lie Before us honor, w^ealth, and the increase Of knov/Iedge; and we Germans never cease To wear ourselves out, so, worn out, to die.
And such a man should never know defeat, But let him thrive where pov/er and luck are wed, Faw^ning on each new^ vogue as seems discreet.
