Стр. 83 - Es bildet ein Talent sich in der Stille, Sich ein Charakter in dem Strom der Welt.
Стр. 281 - And I will combat with weak Menelaus, And wear thy colours on my plumed crest; Yea, I will wound Achilles in the heel, And then return to Helen for a kiss.
Стр. 320 - He fought his doubts and gathered strength, He would not make his judgment blind, He faced the spectres of the mind And laid them ; thus he came at length To find a stronger faith his own.
