A place for friends to meet... with reflections on politics, history, art, music, books, morals, manners, and matters of faith.
A blog by Elena Maria Vidal.
By the fast setting sun;
The pensive fair maiden Looks thoughtfully on;
She roams by the streamlet, O’er meadows she goes,
And darker and darker The pathway fast grows. I rise on a sudden, A glimmering star;
“What glitters above me, So near and so far?” And when thou with wonder Hast gazed on the light,
I fall down before thee, Entranced by thy sight!
~From "Longing" by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
