MEPHISTOPHELES |
 |
Wer will was Lebendigs erkennen
und beschreiben,
Sucht erst den Geist heraus zu treiben,
Dann hat er die Teile in seiner Hand,
Fehlt, leider! nur das geistige Band. |
 |
Who'll know aught living and describe it
well,
Seeks first the spirit to expel.
He then has the component parts in hand
But lacks, alas! the spirit's band. |
