Speaker 1: Part one by Johann Wolfgang von Gerta, translated by Bayard Taylor.
0:21
Speaker 1: Two before the city gate, pedestrians of all kinds come forth?
0:28
Speaker 2: Why do you go that way?
0:30
Speaker 3: Wherefore the hunter's lodge?
0:32
Speaker 4: To day we'll saunter to the mill in Yonder.
0:35
Speaker 5: Hollow, go to the river tavern, I should say, But.
0:39
Speaker 6: Then it's not a pleasant way.
0:42
Speaker 5: And what will you as goes the crowd I follow,
0:47
Speaker 5: come up to Bergdorf. There you'll find good cheer, the
0:50
Speaker 5: finest glasses, and the best of beer, and jolly rows
0:54
Speaker 5: and squabbles.
0:55
Speaker 6: Trust me, you swaggering fellow, is your high a third
1:00
Speaker 6: time itching to be tried. I won't go there. Your
1:04
Speaker 6: jolly rouse disgust me.
1:09
Speaker 7: No, No, I'll tend and go to town again.
1:12
Speaker 8: We'll surely find him by those poplars yonder.
1:15
Speaker 7: That's no great luck for me. Tis plain, you'll have
1:18
Speaker 7: him when and where you wonder his partner and the
1:20
Speaker 7: dance you'll be. But what is all your fun to me.
1:24
Speaker 8: He's surely not alone today he'll be with curly head.
1:27
Speaker 9: I heard him say, deuce, how they stepped the box
1:31
Speaker 9: of lunches.
1:32
Speaker 10: Come, brother, we must see them to the benches. A
1:35
Speaker 10: strong old beer, a pipe that stings and bites, a
1:39
Speaker 10: girl in Sunday clothes. These three are my delights.
1:43
Speaker 7: Just see those handsome fellows there. It's really shameful. I
1:47
Speaker 7: declare to follow servants girls when they might have the
1:51
Speaker 7: most genteel society.
1:53
Speaker 1: Today to the first student, not quite so fast.
1:58
Speaker 11: Two others come behind. Mind, those dress so prettily and neatly.
2:04
Speaker 11: My neighbor's one of them. I find a girl that
2:07
Speaker 11: takes my heart completely. They go their way with looks demure,
2:13
Speaker 11: but they'll accept us after all.
2:15
Speaker 10: I'm sure, no, brother, not for me their former ways.
2:19
Speaker 9: Quick.
2:20
Speaker 10: Lets our game escape us in the press. The hand
2:23
Speaker 10: that wields the broom on Saturdays will best on Sundays.
2:26
Speaker 10: Fondle and caress.
2:28
Speaker 12: He suits me not at all. Our new made burgher master.
2:33
Speaker 12: Since he's installed, his arrogance grows faster. How has he
2:38
Speaker 12: helped the town? I say things worsen? What improvement names?
2:44
Speaker 12: He obedience more than ever claims he and more than
2:49
Speaker 12: ever we must pay.
2:53
Speaker 9: Beggar sings, good gentleman, and lovely lady, So red of cheecken,
2:59
Speaker 9: fine of behold, how evil here your aid is, and
3:05
Speaker 9: see enlighten my distress. Let me not vainly sing my deity.
3:10
Speaker 9: He's only glad who gives away a holiday that shows
3:16
Speaker 9: your pity shall be for me a harvesday.
3:23
Speaker 13: On Sundays holidays. There's naught I take delight in like
3:27
Speaker 13: gossiping of war and war's array, when down in Turkey,
3:30
Speaker 13: far away, the foreign people are a fighting one at
3:34
Speaker 13: the window sits with glass and friends, and sees all
3:37
Speaker 13: sorts of ships go down the river gliding, and blesses
3:40
Speaker 13: then as home. He wends at night our times of
3:43
Speaker 13: peace abiding.
3:45
Speaker 4: Yes, neighbor, that's my nocean too.
3:48
Speaker 14: Why let them break their heads, let loose their passions
3:51
Speaker 14: and mix things madly.
3:53
Speaker 15: Through and through?
3:54
Speaker 16: So here we keep our good, old.
3:56
Speaker 1: Fashioned old woman. To the citizen's daughter.
4:00
Speaker 17: Dear me, how fine, so handsome and so young, who
4:04
Speaker 17: wouldn't lose his heart? That meant you don't be so proud.
4:07
Speaker 17: I'll hold my tongue, and what you'd like, I'll undertake
4:10
Speaker 17: to get you.
4:12
Speaker 7: Come, Agatha. I shunned the witch's sight before folks, lest
4:16
Speaker 7: there be misgiving. Tis true. She showed me on Saint
4:19
Speaker 7: Andrew's night, my future, sweetheart, just as you were living.
4:24
Speaker 17: She showed me mine in crystal clear, with several wild
4:27
Speaker 17: young blades. A soldier lover. I seek him everywhere, I
4:31
Speaker 17: pry and peer, and yet somehow his face I can't discover.
4:35
Speaker 16: Castles with lofty arts and towers, maidens disdainful in beauty array.
4:43
Speaker 9: Both shall be our.
4:46
Speaker 18: Adventure, splendid the pay lad.
4:50
Speaker 16: Let the trumpest for us be suing, calling to pleasure,
4:55
Speaker 16: calling to room stormy.
4:58
Speaker 4: Our life is.
4:59
Speaker 8: Such is its boon, maidens and castles late soon.
5:05
Speaker 6: Bowl is the venture splendid.
5:08
Speaker 4: Paine and the soldiers marching, marching.
5:12
Speaker 14: Away, released from ice or brook and river by the
5:16
Speaker 14: quickening glance of the gracious spring, the colors of hope
5:21
Speaker 14: to the valley. Cling and weak old winter himself must
5:25
Speaker 14: shiver withdrawn to the mountains, a crownless king. Whence ever retreating,
5:31
Speaker 14: he sends again impotent showers of sleet that darkle in
5:35
Speaker 14: belts across the green of the plain. But the sun
5:38
Speaker 14: will permit no white to sparkle everywhere form in development,
5:43
Speaker 14: moveth he will brighten the world with the tints he
5:46
Speaker 14: loveth and lacking blossoms blue, yellow, and red. He takes
5:52
Speaker 14: these gaudy people instead, turn thee about, and from this
5:57
Speaker 14: height back on the town, direct thy sight out of
6:00
Speaker 14: the hollow gloomy gait. The motley throngs come forth, elate,
6:05
Speaker 14: each will the joy of the sunshine hoarde to honor
6:08
Speaker 14: the day of the risen Lord. They feel themselves their resurrection.
6:13
Speaker 14: From the low, dark rooms, scarce habitable, from the bonds
6:17
Speaker 14: of work, from trade's restriction, from the pressing weight of
6:21
Speaker 14: roof and gable, from the narrow, crushing streets and alleys,
6:26
Speaker 14: from the churches solemn and reverent night, all come forth
6:30
Speaker 14: to the cheerful light. How lively see the multitude sallies
6:35
Speaker 14: scattering through gardens and fields remote While over the river
6:39
Speaker 14: that broadly dalis dances so many a festive boat and
6:44
Speaker 14: over laden nigh to sinking, the last full wary takes
6:49
Speaker 14: the steam yonder afar from the hill paths, blinking their
6:53
Speaker 14: clothes are colors that softly gleam. I hear the noise
6:57
Speaker 14: of the village. Even here is the people's proper heaven
7:02
Speaker 14: here high and low contented. See here, I am man,
7:07
Speaker 14: dare man to be.
7:10
Speaker 4: To stroll with you. Sir doctor flatters his honor prophet
7:15
Speaker 4: unto me. But I alone would shun these shallow matters,
7:19
Speaker 4: since all that's course, provokes my enmity, This fiddling, shouting, tinpinrolling.
7:26
Speaker 4: I hate these noises of the throng. They rave as
7:30
Speaker 4: satan or their sports controlling and call it murk him
7:34
Speaker 4: call it song.
7:36
Speaker 1: Peasants under the linden tree, dance and song.
7:40
Speaker 8: All for the danceler shepherd dressed in rib ands, wreath
7:44
Speaker 8: and gay his best himself with care, raying around the
7:50
Speaker 8: linden lesson lad already footed it like mad Hurrah, Hurrah,
7:57
Speaker 8: Hurrah tra lah. The fiddle bowl was playing.
8:04
Speaker 2: He broke the ranks, no.
8:06
Speaker 8: Whit afraid, and with his elbow punched a maid who
8:10
Speaker 8: stood the dancer ray the boxom when she turned and said,
8:16
Speaker 8: now you I call the stupid head.
8:18
Speaker 18: Hurrah Hurrah hurra trama la be decent while you're saying. Then,
8:28
Speaker 18: while the circle went their flight, they danced a left,
8:32
Speaker 18: they danced to right.
8:33
Speaker 14: The kurdles all were playing.
8:37
Speaker 8: They first grew red and then grew warm and rested, panting.
8:41
Speaker 18: Harmon arm Hurrah, Hurrah, Hurrah, torala.
8:47
Speaker 8: And chips and elbow straying. Now, don't be so familiar here,
8:54
Speaker 8: How many you.
8:55
Speaker 18: One hussle is dear waylaying and betrayed, and yet he
9:01
Speaker 18: coaxed her soon aside and round the linden sounded wide, Hurrah, Hurrah, Hurrah,
9:09
Speaker 18: Terrralie fills.
9:12
Speaker 3: Play, Sir data. It is good of you that thus
9:19
Speaker 3: you condescend to day among this crowd of merry folk,
9:23
Speaker 3: a high learned man to stray. Then also take the
9:28
Speaker 3: finest can we fill with fresh wine for your sake.
9:32
Speaker 3: I offer it an humbly wish that not alone your
9:36
Speaker 3: thirst is slake, that as the drops below its break,
9:41
Speaker 3: so many days of life you drink.
9:45
Speaker 14: I take the cup you kindly reach with thanks and
9:48
Speaker 14: health to all and each.
9:51
Speaker 1: The people gather in a circle about him.
9:54
Speaker 3: In truth tis well and fitly timed that now our
9:59
Speaker 3: day of joy you share who wheretofore, in evil days
10:05
Speaker 3: gave us so much of helping care. Still many a
10:09
Speaker 3: man stands living here, saved by your father's skillful hand
10:16
Speaker 3: that snatched him from the fever's rage and stay'd the
10:21
Speaker 3: plague in all the land. Then also you, though but
10:27
Speaker 3: a youth went into every house of pain. Many the
10:32
Speaker 3: corpses carried forth, but you, in health came out again.
10:39
Speaker 14: No test or trial. You evaded a helping God. The
10:43
Speaker 14: helper aided how to man.
10:46
Speaker 8: So skilled, and tried that for our help he.
10:49
Speaker 14: Lowly abide to him above bowed down, my friends, who
10:54
Speaker 14: teaches help and succor sends.
10:58
Speaker 1: He goes on with Wagner with.
11:01
Speaker 4: What a feeling, Thou great man, must thou receive the
11:05
Speaker 4: people's honest veneration. How lucky he whose gives his station
11:10
Speaker 4: with such advantages in dow Thou art shone to all
11:14
Speaker 4: the younger generation. Each ask and presses near to gaze.
11:19
Speaker 4: The fiddle stops, the dance delays. Thou goest may stand
11:24
Speaker 4: and rose to see, And all the caps are lifted
11:27
Speaker 4: high a little more, and they would bend the knee,
11:31
Speaker 4: as if the Holy host came back.
11:34
Speaker 14: A few more steps ascend as far as yonder stone.
11:39
Speaker 14: Here from our wandering we will rest contented here, lost
11:43
Speaker 14: in thought. I've lingered oft alone, when foolish fasts and prayers.
11:48
Speaker 14: My life tormented Here, rich in hope and firm in faith,
11:53
Speaker 14: with tears, wrung hands and sighs, I've striven the end
11:58
Speaker 14: of that far spreading death, entreating from the Lord of Heaven.
12:03
Speaker 14: Now like contempt, the crowd's applauses seem couldst thou, but
12:08
Speaker 14: read within mine inmost spirit, How little now I deem
12:12
Speaker 14: that sire or son such praises merit. My father's was
12:17
Speaker 14: a somber, brooding brain, which, through the holy spheres of nature,
12:23
Speaker 14: groped and wandered, and honestly, in his own fashion, pondered
12:28
Speaker 14: with labor whimsical and pain who in his dusky workshop,
12:33
Speaker 14: bending with proved adepts in company made from his recipes,
12:38
Speaker 14: unending opposing substances agree. There was a lion read a wooer,
12:44
Speaker 14: daring within the lily's tepid bath, espoused and both tormented,
12:50
Speaker 14: then by flame, unsparing by turns in either bridal chamber,
12:54
Speaker 14: housed if then appeared with colors splendid, the young queen
12:59
Speaker 14: in her crystal shell. This was the medicine. The patients
13:04
Speaker 14: woes soon ended, and none demanded who got well. Thus
13:10
Speaker 14: we are hellish boluses compounding among these vales and hills
13:15
Speaker 14: surrounding worse than the pestilence have passed. Thousands were done
13:20
Speaker 14: to death from poison of my giving, And I must
13:24
Speaker 14: hear by all the living, the shameless murderers praised at last, Why.
13:30
Speaker 4: Therefore yield to such depression? A good man does his
13:34
Speaker 4: honor share in exercising with the strictest care the art
13:39
Speaker 4: bequeathed to his possession. Dost thou thy father, honor as
13:43
Speaker 4: a youth. Then may his teaching cheerfully impel thee. Dost thou,
13:49
Speaker 4: as man, increase the stores of truth? Then may thine
13:53
Speaker 4: own son afterwards excel thee.
13:55
Speaker 14: Oh, happy he who still renews the hope from error's
13:59
Speaker 14: deeps to rise forever. That which one does not know
14:03
Speaker 14: one needs to use, and what one knows one uses never.
14:10
Speaker 14: But let us not by such despondents. So the fortune
14:13
Speaker 14: of this hour embitter mark how beneath the evening sunlights glow,
14:19
Speaker 14: the green embosomed houses glitter. The glow retreats done as
14:24
Speaker 14: the day of toil, it yonder haste new fields of life,
14:28
Speaker 14: exploring ah that no wing can lift me from the
14:32
Speaker 14: soil upon its track to follow follows soaring. Then would
14:37
Speaker 14: I see eternal evening gild the silent world beneath me,
14:40
Speaker 14: glowing on fire, each mountain peak with peace, each valley filled,
14:46
Speaker 14: the silver brook to golden rivers, flowing the mountain chain,
14:50
Speaker 14: with all its gorges deep, would then no more impede
14:54
Speaker 14: my godlike motion. And now before mine eyes expands the ocean,
14:59
Speaker 14: with all its bays, in shining sleep. Yet finally the
15:03
Speaker 14: weary God is sinking. The new born impulse fires my mind.
15:08
Speaker 14: I hasten on his beams, eternal drinking the day before
15:12
Speaker 14: me and the night behind Above me, heaven unfurl'd, the
15:17
Speaker 14: floor of waves beneath me a glorious dream. Though now
15:22
Speaker 14: the glory's fade alas the wings that lift the mind,
15:27
Speaker 14: no aid of wings to lift the body can bequeath me.
15:31
Speaker 14: Yet in each soul is borne the pleasure of yearning onward, upward,
15:35
Speaker 14: and away. When o'er our heads lost in the vaulted azure,
15:40
Speaker 14: the lark sends down his flickering lay when over crags
15:44
Speaker 14: and piney highlands, the poisoning eagle slowly soars and over
15:49
Speaker 14: plains and lakes and islands. The crane sails by to
15:53
Speaker 14: other shores.
15:56
Speaker 4: I've had myself at times some odd caprices but never
16:00
Speaker 4: yet such an impulse felt as this is. One soon
16:04
Speaker 4: fatigues on woods and fields to look. Nor would I
16:07
Speaker 4: beg the bird his wing to spirits. How otherwise the
16:11
Speaker 4: mental raptures bear us from page to page, from book
16:14
Speaker 4: to book. Then winter nights take loveliness untold as warmer life,
16:19
Speaker 4: and every limb had crowned you. And when your hands
16:22
Speaker 4: unroll some parchment, rare and old, all heaven descends and
16:27
Speaker 4: opens bright around you.
16:30
Speaker 14: One impulse art thou conscious of at best? Oh, never
16:35
Speaker 14: seek to know the other. Two souls alas reside within
16:39
Speaker 14: my breast, and each withdraws from and repels its brother. One,
16:44
Speaker 14: with tenacious organs, holds in love and clinging lust the
16:48
Speaker 14: world in its embraces. The other strongly sweeps this dust
16:53
Speaker 14: above into the high ancestral spaces. If there be airy
16:58
Speaker 14: spirits near twick heaven and earth, on potent errands fleeing,
17:03
Speaker 14: let them drop down the golden atmosphere and bear me
17:07
Speaker 14: forth to new and varied being. YEA, if a magic
17:11
Speaker 14: mantle once were mine to waft me o'er the world
17:14
Speaker 14: at pleasure, I would not for the costliest stores of treasure,
17:19
Speaker 14: not for a monarch's robe, the gift resign invoke not.
17:25
Speaker 4: Thus the well known throng, which through the firmament diffused,
17:29
Speaker 4: is bearing and danger. Thousandfold are raced to wrong, and
17:33
Speaker 4: every quarter is preparing swift. From the north, the spirit
17:38
Speaker 4: fangs so sharp, sweep down, and with their barb points
17:41
Speaker 4: will to sail you. Then from the east they come
17:44
Speaker 4: to dry and warp your lungs till breath and being
17:48
Speaker 4: fail you. If from the desert, sendeth them the south
17:53
Speaker 4: with fire on fire, your throbbing forehead crowning the west
17:58
Speaker 4: leads on a host to cure the round. Only when
18:01
Speaker 4: meadow field and you are drowning, they gladly hearken, prompt
18:06
Speaker 4: for injury, gladly obey, because they gladly cheat us from heaven.
18:11
Speaker 4: They represent themselves to be and list like angels when
18:16
Speaker 4: the lies they meet us. But let us go to
18:20
Speaker 4: his gray and dusky. All the air is cold, the
18:23
Speaker 4: vapor's fall. At night one learns his house to prize.
18:28
Speaker 4: Why stand you this with such astonished eyes? What in
18:32
Speaker 4: the twilight can your mind so trouble?
18:35
Speaker 14: Seest thou the black dog coursing there through corn and stubble.
18:41
Speaker 4: Long since yet deemed him not important in.
18:44
Speaker 14: The least inspect him close. For what takest thou the beast?
18:50
Speaker 4: Why poor poodle who has lost his master? And since
18:54
Speaker 4: about his track to find?
18:57
Speaker 14: Seest thou The spiral circles narrowing faster, which he approaching
19:02
Speaker 14: round us seems to wind a streaming trail of fire.
19:06
Speaker 14: If I see rightly follows his path of mystery.
19:10
Speaker 4: It may be your eyes deceive you slightly. Not but
19:14
Speaker 4: a plain black poodle, do I see?
19:17
Speaker 14: It seems to me that, with enchanted cunning, he snares
19:20
Speaker 14: our feet some future chain to bind.
19:24
Speaker 4: I see him timidly in doubt around us, running, since
19:28
Speaker 4: in his master's stead two strangers doth be find.
19:32
Speaker 14: The circle narrows.
19:34
Speaker 19: He is near a.
19:36
Speaker 4: Dog, thou seest, and not a phantom. Here behold him,
19:40
Speaker 4: Stop upon his belly, crawl his tail set wagging canon habits, all.
19:47
Speaker 14: Come follow us. Come here at least.
19:50
Speaker 4: Tis the absurdest drawlest beast. Stand still and you will
19:55
Speaker 4: see him. Wait, address him, and he gambles straight. If
20:00
Speaker 4: something's lost, till quickly bring it. You're cane. If in
20:03
Speaker 4: the stream you fling.
20:04
Speaker 14: It, no doubt you're right. No trace of mind I
20:09
Speaker 14: own is in the beast I see, but drill alone.
20:14
Speaker 4: The dog, when he's well educated, is by the wisest tolerated. Yes,
20:20
Speaker 4: he deserves your favorite thoroughly, the clever scholar of the students.
20:24
Speaker 1: He they pass in the city gate three, the study
20:32
Speaker 1: faust entering with the.
20:34
Speaker 14: Poodle behind me, field and meadows sleeping, I leave in
20:40
Speaker 14: deep prophetic night, within whose dread and holy keeping, the
20:45
Speaker 14: better soul awakes to light. The wild desires no longer
20:49
Speaker 14: win us. The deeds of passion cease to chain, the
20:53
Speaker 14: love of man revives within us, the love of God
20:57
Speaker 14: revives again. Be still, thou poodle, make not such racket
21:03
Speaker 14: and riot. Why at the threshold wilt snuffing, be behind
21:07
Speaker 14: the stove. Repose thee in quiet, my softest cushion. I
21:11
Speaker 14: give to thee, as thou up yonder, with running and
21:15
Speaker 14: leaping amused us hast on the mountain's crest. So now
21:19
Speaker 14: I take thee into my keeping, a welcome but also
21:24
Speaker 14: a silent guest. Ah when within our narrow chamber the
21:29
Speaker 14: lamp with friendly luster glows flames in the breast each
21:33
Speaker 14: faded ember, and in the heart itself that knows. Then
21:38
Speaker 14: hope again, lends sweet assistance and reason, then resumes her
21:43
Speaker 14: speech one yearns the rivers of existence, the very fonts
21:48
Speaker 14: of life, to reach. Snarl, not poodle to the sound
21:53
Speaker 14: that rises, the sacred tones that my soul embrace. This
21:58
Speaker 14: bestial noise is out of place. We are used to
22:01
Speaker 14: see that man despises what he never comprehends, and the
22:05
Speaker 14: good and the beautiful villipens, finding them often hard to measure.
22:10
Speaker 14: Will the dog like man snarl his displeasure? But ah,
22:16
Speaker 14: I feel though, Will thereto be stronger? Contentment flows from
22:21
Speaker 14: out my breast no longer? Why must the stream so
22:25
Speaker 14: soon run dry and fail us? And burning thirst again
22:29
Speaker 14: assail us therein I've borne so much probation, and yet
22:34
Speaker 14: this want may be supplied us. We call the supernatural
22:38
Speaker 14: to guide us. We pine and thirst for revelation, which,
22:41
Speaker 14: nowhere worthier is more nobly sent than here in our
22:47
Speaker 14: new Testament. I feel impelled its meaning to determine with
22:52
Speaker 14: honest purpose once for all. The hallowood original to change
22:56
Speaker 14: to my beloved.
22:57
Speaker 1: German heaves the volume and commences.
23:02
Speaker 14: Tis written in the beginning was the word here I
23:07
Speaker 14: am balked? Who now can help afford the word impossible,
23:13
Speaker 14: so high to rate it, and otherwise I must translate it.
23:17
Speaker 14: If by the spirit I am truly taught, then thus
23:21
Speaker 14: in the beginning was the thought this first line. Let
23:26
Speaker 14: me weigh completely, lest my impatient pen proceed too fleetly.
23:32
Speaker 14: Is it the thought which works creates? Indeed, in the
23:36
Speaker 14: beginning was the power I read. Yet as I write,
23:40
Speaker 14: a warning is suggested that I the sense may not
23:44
Speaker 14: have fairly tested. The spirit aids me. Now I see
23:48
Speaker 14: the light. In the beginning was the act I write?
23:54
Speaker 14: If I must share my chamber with thee poodle, stop
23:57
Speaker 14: that howling prithee. Cease to dark and bellow such a
24:02
Speaker 14: noisy disturbing fellow, I'll no longer suffer near me. One
24:06
Speaker 14: of us dost hear me? Must leave? I fear me
24:09
Speaker 14: no longer guessed? Right, I bestow the door is open,
24:13
Speaker 14: art free to go. But what do I see in
24:17
Speaker 14: the creature? Is that in the course of nature? Is
24:21
Speaker 14: it actual fact or fancies? Shows how long and broad
24:26
Speaker 14: my poodle grows? He rises mightily a canine form that
24:30
Speaker 14: cannot be what a specter I've harbored. Thus he resembles
24:35
Speaker 14: a hippopotamus with fiery eyes, teeth terrible to see. Oh
24:40
Speaker 14: now am I sure of thee? For all of thy
24:43
Speaker 14: half hellish brood. The key of Solomon is good.
24:48
Speaker 1: Spirits in the corridor, someone live is got skin.
24:54
Speaker 2: How follow him?
24:56
Speaker 19: Not like the foss There.
24:59
Speaker 20: Quick the old holing there take heed, look about back
25:05
Speaker 20: and forth, however, under and over and word whip self out.
25:11
Speaker 2: If urain ellen.
25:13
Speaker 7: Let it not failure, for.
25:16
Speaker 17: He without measure has wrought our leisure.
25:22
Speaker 14: First to encounter the beast. The words of the four
25:26
Speaker 14: be addressed. Salamander, shine, glorious wave, undine as bidden, Sylph,
25:33
Speaker 14: be thou hidden, gnome, be laborious. Who knows not their sense?
25:39
Speaker 14: These elements, their properties and power not seize no mastery.
25:44
Speaker 14: He inherits over the spirits vanish inflaming ether, Salamander flow
25:51
Speaker 14: foamingly together, undine, shine in meteor, sheen, Sylph, bring help
25:57
Speaker 14: to hearth and shelf. Incubus, incubus, step forward and finish.
26:03
Speaker 14: Thus of the four, no feature lurks in the creature.
26:08
Speaker 14: Quiet he lies and grins disdain. Not yet, it seems,
26:12
Speaker 14: have I given him pain? Now to undisguise thee hear
26:17
Speaker 14: me exercise thee art thou, my gay one, Hell's fugitive
26:21
Speaker 14: stray one, the sign witness now before which they bow
26:26
Speaker 14: the cohorts of Hell with hair all bristling. It begins
26:31
Speaker 14: to swell base, being hearest thou knowest and fearest thou,
26:36
Speaker 14: the one unoriginate named inexpressibly through all heaven, impermeate, pierced
26:43
Speaker 14: irredressibly behind the stoves, still band see it an elephant
26:49
Speaker 14: expand it fills the space entire mist like melting. Ever
26:54
Speaker 14: faster tis enough, ascend no higher, lay thyself at the
26:59
Speaker 14: feet of the master. Thou seest not vain the threats
27:03
Speaker 14: I bring thee with holy fire or scorch and sting thee.
27:07
Speaker 14: Wait not to know the threefold dazzling glow. Wait not
27:11
Speaker 14: to know the strongest art within.
27:14
Speaker 1: My hands Mephistopheles. While the vapor is dissipating, steps forth
27:20
Speaker 1: from behind the stove in the costume of a traveling.
27:23
Speaker 19: Scholar, Why Suchennai's what are my lord's commands?
27:30
Speaker 14: This was the poodle's real core a traveling scholar. Then
27:35
Speaker 14: the cassus is diverting.
27:38
Speaker 19: The lahned gentleman, I bow before you have made me
27:42
Speaker 19: rally sweat that is sa tee?
27:45
Speaker 14: What is thy name?
27:48
Speaker 19: Equiss and small? It seems for one whose mind the
27:51
Speaker 19: world so much despises. Who's conning all external climbs, the
27:57
Speaker 19: depths of being only prizes.
28:01
Speaker 14: With all you, gentlemen, the names attest whereby the nature
28:06
Speaker 14: usually is expressed clearly. The latter it implies in names
28:10
Speaker 14: like beels above, destroyer, father of lies? Who art thou then.
28:17
Speaker 19: Part of that power not understood, which always wills the
28:22
Speaker 19: bad and always walks the good?
28:26
Speaker 14: What hidden sense in this enigma lies?
28:30
Speaker 19: I am the spirit that denies, and justly so, for
28:35
Speaker 19: all things from the void called thought deserve to be destroyed.
28:40
Speaker 19: It are better than when not created? Does all which
28:44
Speaker 19: you as seen have raided? Destruction? Ought it evil blend?
28:50
Speaker 19: That is my proper element.
28:53
Speaker 14: Thou namest thyself apart, yet ShoWest complete to me.
28:59
Speaker 19: The more struld I speak to thee if man, that
29:04
Speaker 19: microcosmic fool can see himself ahold so frequently part of
29:10
Speaker 19: the part and my once all in primal nine, part
29:15
Speaker 19: of the darkness which brought forth dull light, the hot delight,
29:20
Speaker 19: which now disputes the space and claims of modern night
29:24
Speaker 19: her ancient place. And yet does struggle fails. Since light, however,
29:31
Speaker 19: it weeps still fatted unto bodies sleeves, It flows from bodies,
29:37
Speaker 19: bodies beautifies by bodies. Is its course impeded? And so,
29:43
Speaker 19: but little time is needed, I hope ere as the
29:47
Speaker 19: bodies die, it dies.
29:51
Speaker 14: I see the plan. Thou art pursuing, Thou canst not
29:55
Speaker 14: compass general ruin and hast on smaller scale begun.
30:02
Speaker 19: And truly it is not much when all is done,
30:05
Speaker 19: that which do not is in resistance. Set the something
30:09
Speaker 19: of this comes you world, As yet with all that
30:13
Speaker 19: I have undertaken not been by me disturbed or shaken
30:18
Speaker 19: from earthquake, tamp based wave, volcanoes brand back into quite
30:23
Speaker 19: subtle sea and land, and the damn stuff, the bestial
30:28
Speaker 19: human brood. But he use in having death to play with?
30:33
Speaker 19: How many have I made away with? And ever circulates
30:38
Speaker 19: a newer, fresher blood. It makes me furious such things
30:43
Speaker 19: beholding from water, art and air unfolding a thousand gums
30:50
Speaker 19: break forth and grow in dry and weight and warm
30:54
Speaker 19: and chilly. And had I not the flame reserved? Why really,
30:59
Speaker 19: there is nothing so special of my own to show.
31:03
Speaker 14: So to the actively eternal creative force in cold disdain.
31:07
Speaker 14: You now oppose the fist infernal, whose wicked clench is
31:12
Speaker 14: all in vain. Some other labors seek thou rather, queer
31:17
Speaker 14: son of Chaos, to begin.
31:20
Speaker 19: Well, we will consider thou canst together my views when
31:24
Speaker 19: next I venture in my tye, perhaps depart at present?
31:31
Speaker 14: Why thou shouldst ask? I don't perceive, though our acquaintances
31:35
Speaker 14: so recent, for further visits, thou hast leave the windows
31:39
Speaker 14: here the door is yonder a chimney.
31:42
Speaker 19: Also, you behold, I must conface that thought I may
31:47
Speaker 19: not wender my steps by one slight obstacle controlled the
31:53
Speaker 19: wicker's foot that on your tracehold maidies.
31:57
Speaker 14: The pentagram prohibits thee. Why tell me now, thou, son
32:02
Speaker 14: of Hades, If that prevents, how camest thou end to me?
32:07
Speaker 14: Could such a spirit be so cheated?
32:10
Speaker 19: Inspect the thing? The drying is not completed. The outer angle,
32:15
Speaker 19: you may see, is up and left. The lines don't
32:19
Speaker 19: fit it.
32:21
Speaker 14: Well. Chance this time is fairly hid it. And thus
32:25
Speaker 14: thou art prisoner to me. It seems the business has succeeded.
32:31
Speaker 19: The poodle not cha marked as after thee he speeded.
32:36
Speaker 19: But other respects now obtain the devil can't get out again.
32:43
Speaker 14: Try then the open window pane.
32:46
Speaker 19: For devils and for specters. This is law where they
32:51
Speaker 19: have entered in dere. Also day we draw, the first
32:55
Speaker 19: is free to us. We are governed by the second.
33:00
Speaker 14: In hell itself, then laws are reckoned. That's well, So
33:06
Speaker 14: might a compact be made with you, gentlemen, and binding.
33:10
Speaker 19: Surely all that is promised shall delight deep purely, no
33:17
Speaker 19: skin flint bargain, shalt thou see. But this is not
33:21
Speaker 19: of swift conclusion. We will talk about the matter soon.
33:26
Speaker 19: And now I do entreat this boon. Leave to withdraw
33:30
Speaker 19: from my intrusion.
33:33
Speaker 14: One moment more. I ask THEE to remain some pleasant news,

34:31
Speaker 19: monotony that which the dainty spirits seeing thee. The lovely

35:01
Speaker 2: Vanishy darking arches above him, the loveliest weather born of blue,

35:13
Speaker 2: has been potted. Starlight is sparkling, tranquil hearted songs are

Speaker 2: high heaven ze, children and beauty bewilding, waveringly bending.
35:27
Speaker 21: Past as they hover, longing ling follow them over, They
35:34
Speaker 21: with their glowing.
35:35
Speaker 16: Garments outlowing cover in glowing landape and power.
35:41

35:54
Speaker 21: cluster gush into must or flow to rims.
35:59
Speaker 2: Owning hushing wine, that is, dashing gems as it bound
36:05
Speaker 2: is down.
36:06
Speaker 21: The high places and rinning surround us, crystallized spaces and
36:12
Speaker 21: happy embraces, blossoming.
36:15
Speaker 15: Orlands, emerald shorelands that the who races drink and fly onward,
36:24
Speaker 15: lie ever sunward between the enticing islands that flatter, dipping
36:30
Speaker 15: and rising.
36:31
Speaker 17: Light on the water are inspiring sound of their quiring
36:38
Speaker 17: See the entrancing world.
36:41
Speaker 2: They're dancing.
36:42
Speaker 16: All in the air, are freer and fairer, some of
36:47
Speaker 16: them scaling boly islands. Others are sailing, circling the islands,
36:55
Speaker 16: other flying lifeward, all hiding, all.
37:00
Speaker 17: With a distant star of existence, traasure.
37:04
Speaker 2: And love.
37:07
Speaker 19: He sleeps, and of your face, your airy number, have
37:11
Speaker 19: sung him truly into slumber. For this performance, I your
37:16
Speaker 19: debtor proof. Not yet I doubt the man to catch
37:21
Speaker 19: the fine and hold him with vairest images of dreams
37:25
Speaker 19: infold him, plunge him into seas of sweet untruth. Yet
37:31
Speaker 19: for the Threshold's magic which controlled him, the devil needs
37:35
Speaker 19: a rat squeak tooth. I use no length than invocation.
37:41
Speaker 19: Here rustles one that soon will work my liberation. The
37:46
Speaker 19: lord of rats and eke of mice, of flies and
37:49
Speaker 19: bed bugs, frocks and lies summons dheter to the door
37:54

38:16
Speaker 19: so faust, until we meet once more.
38:22
Speaker 14: Faust awaking am I again, so foully cheated. Remains there
38:29
Speaker 14: not of lofty spirit sway, but that a dream the
