> “Horchet! Horcht dem Sturm der Horen! Tönend wird für Geistesehren Schon der neue Tag geboren. Felsentore knarren rasselnd, Phöbus' Räder rollen prasselnd; Welch Getöse bringt das Licht! Es drommetet, es posaunet, Auge blinzt and Ohr erstaunet, Unerhörtes hört sich nicht.” > “Hark! The Hours in storm are winging, > And to spirit ears loud-ringing, > Now the new-born day is springing. > Rocky portals clang asunder, > Phoebus' wheels roll forth in thunder, > What a tumult brings the light! > Loud the trump of dawn hath sounded, > Eye is dazzled, ear astounded, > The Unheard no ear may smite.” > (Translation after Latham)
