The Spiritual-Scientific Basis of Goethes Work

GA 35/ssbogw/p019 · English 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.

> Homunculus: > Hither and thither, up, down, in and out; > From place to place still hovering about, > Impatient the free air of life to breathe. > Longing to break the glass that is my sheath— > My chrysalis; but everywhere I see > Such sights! I could not venture yet to be. > Now for a secret—I am on the track > Of two Philosophers. Their tongues, clack! clack! > Went evermore, and Nature—Nature was > The word. Keep me not from them. Of the laws > Of earthly being they must somewhat know: > Between them I may learn some little; so > Pass into life by their experience wiser. > Part ii, Act ii.
