LowLow alignmentMost translators re-paragraphed Steiner substantially. The locus identifies the same chapter or section, but paragraph-N to paragraph-N mapping is loose. For exact-quotation precision, compare with the German.
Record: listeners' notes. This text is a newspaper's or a listener's report of the lecture, not a transcript. The wording is the reporter's: do not quote it as Steiner's own words. Evidence: «Notizen aus dem Vortrag». The unit's own header line in the edition served.
> How on the day you were given to the world
> The sun stood to greet the planets,
> You have flourished and flourished
> According to the law by which you came into being.
> You must be like this, you cannot escape yourself!
> So said the Sibyls and the prophets,
> And no time and no power dismembered
> The form that was stamped, which develops itself alive!
