Guest guest Posted March 27, 2005 Report Share Posted March 27, 2005 But you, divine one singing on the brink of destruction while legions of forsaken maenads tore at your flesh; you vanquished their shrieks with harmony, oh bright one, while from utter devastation rebounded your song afresh. However they wrestled and raged, seeing you persevere, they could destroy neither your head nor your lyre; for each sharp stone they launched at your heart in ire, turned soft, touching you, acquiring the power to hear. Whipped on by vengeance, they dismembered you at last, but your melody resounded intact, in the lion, the boulder, the bird and the tree. In each of these your song holds fast. O mournful god forlorn! You inexhaustible trace! Only because rancor broke and strewed you through nature have we learned to hear, become the mouth of creation's face. Rainer Rilke Wishing you all peace and love on this blessed day. Suzanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
