NIGHT The tumults of my soul are stilled, My withered heart with rapture filled: In virtue of the magic lines, The secret powers that nature mould, Their essence and their acts unfold Am I a god ?-Can mortal sight Enjoy, endure this burst of light? lIow clear these silent characters! All Nature present to my view, And each creative act of hers- And is the glorious vision true? The wise man's words at length are plain, Whose sense so long I sought in vain: 'The W orlde of Spirits no Clouds conceale: Man's Eye is dim, it cannot see. Man's Heart is dead, it cannot feele. Thou, who wouldst knowe the Things that be, The Heart of Earth in the Sunrise red, Bathe, till its Stains of Earth are fled.' [He looks over the sign attentively. Oh! how the spell before my sight Brings Nature's hidden ways to light: See! all things with each other blending Each to all its being lending- .A.l.l on each in turn dependinglIeavenly ministers descending- .And again to heaven up· tending Floating, mingling, interweaving- Rising, sinking, and receiving Each from each, while each is giving On to each, and each relieving Each, the pails of gold, the living Current through the air is heaving; Breathing blessings, see them bending, l3alanced worlds from change defending, While e,ery where diffused is harmony unending! Oh! what a vision-but a vision only! Cun heart of man embrace ©Biblioteca Nacional de Colombia
72 FAUST Illimitable Nature! Fountain of life, forth-weUing; The same in every place; That dost support and cheer Wide heaven, and teeming earth, and every creature That hath therein its dwelling, Oh! could the blighted soul but feel thee near! To thee still turns the withered heart, To thee the spirit, seared and lonely, Childlike. would seek the sweet restorative; On thy maternal bosom feed and live. I ask a solace thou dost not impart; The food I hunger for thou dost not give! [He turns over the leaves of the book impatiently, till his eye rests on the sign 01 the SPIRIT OF THE EARTH_ How differently this sign affects my frame! Spirit of Earth! my nature is the same, Or near akin to thine! How fearlessly I read this sign ! And feel even now new powers are mine; While my brain burns, as though with wine; Give me the agitated strife. The madness of the world of life; I feel within my soul the birth Of strength, enabling me to bear, And thoughts, impelling me to share The fortunes, good or evil, of the Earth; To battle with the Tempest's breath, Or plunge where Shipwreck grinds his teeth. All around grows cold and cloudy, The moon withdraws hor ray; The lamp's loose flame is shivering, It fades, it wes away. Ha! round my brow what sparkles ruddy In trembling light are quivering? And. to and fro, Stream sheets of flame, in fearful play, ©Biblioteca Nacional de Colombia
