Record: unknown. How this text was taken down (shorthand transcript, listeners' notes or manuscript) is not on record here. Unknown is not an assurance of a stenogram: check the edition's own notes before resting an argument on one word.
Du hältst vom Weltenleben
Das Wollen nur im Innern fest;
Wenn Weltenleben dich voll erfaßt,
So wird vernichtend Geistes-Lust
In dir das Selbst-Erleben töten;
Doch Erdenwollen geist-ergeben,
Es läßt den Gott im Menschen walten.
