... dich, Geliebte, nicht reu'n dass du mich so schnell dich ergeben! Glaub'es, ich denke nicht frech, denke nicht niedrig von dir. Vielfach wirkten die Pfeile des Amor; einige ritzen, Und vom schleichenden Gift kranket auf Jahre des Herz, Aber machtig befiedert, mit frisch geschliffener Scharfe, Dringen die andern ins Mark, zunden behende das Blut.

... Kuhnau wrote thirteen sonatas. The "Frische Clavier Fruechte," or "Sieben Suonaten von guter Invention u. Manier auf dem Clavier zu spielen," were published in 1696, and later editions in 1710 and 1724. In a quaint preface the composer tells us that in naming his "Fresh Fruits" "sonatas," he kept in mind all kinds of inventiones and changes (Veraenderungen) by which so-called ...

... the yearning for personal immortality already shows itself—a yearning which, as it was left totally unsatisfied by reason, produced the Hellenic pessimism. For, as Pfleiderer very well observes (Religionsphilosophie auf geschichtliche Grundlage, 3. Berlin, 1896), "no people ever came upon the earth so serene and sunny as the Greeks in the youthful days of their historical existence ... but no people changed so completely their idea of the value of life. The Hellenism ...

There is a beautiful floral arch over a bed of colour, and I believe there is some tender sentiment connected with the display;—'Bon Voyage,' 'Auf Wiedersehen,' or some such motto marked out in red buds. Now those flowers are not for me.
