Friedrich Schiller Poems
- Resignation
Resignation
Yes! even I was in Arcadia born,
And, in mine infant ears,
A vow of rapture was by Nature sworn;- ... - Zenith And Nadir
Wheresoever thou wanderest in space, thy Zenith and Nadir
Unto the heavens knit thee, unto the axis of earth.
Howsoever thou attest, let heaven be moved by thy purpose,
Let the aim of thy deeds traverse the axis of earth!... - The Artifice
Wouldst thou give pleasure at once to the children of earth and the righteous?
Draw the image of lust adding the devil as well!
... - Hero And Leander. [34] A Ballad

Frown through the sunlight's liquid gold,

The Hellespont beneath them swells, ... - Verses Written In The Album Of A Friend. (herr Von Mecheln Of Basle.)

And, like Nature, fair art is inexhaustible too.
Hail, thou honored old man! for both in thy heart thou preservest
Living sensations, and thus ne'er-ending youth is thy lot!...
