13. Eurythmy Performance
Of course, this also sets an important task for the accompanying recitation and music. This task is still difficult to grasp today, since the [recitation today] has, by law, been reduced to a mere [rendition of what is] prosaically in the poetry, which [...] is illegible words]. I would like to take this opportunity to remind you of something [...] /illegible words] a poet like Schiller. Schiller always felt an indeterminate melody in his soul before [he created a] poem, and the transformation of this [melody], the transformation of this movement, that, [what] passes into that, what he then rhyming and the overall form of the poem, is what recitation will bring out again, for example, if it draws on our spatial movement art, our eurythmy.
