Tabla de Contenidos:
  • My mind beats on
  • A thirst, a leaping, wild unrest, a deep desire
  • Should I give up the fruitless struggle with the world?
  • So be it
  • What lies in wait for me here?
  • My head is heavy, my eyelids ache
  • I must go elsewhere, I must find a clearer sky, a fresher air
  • How much better to live, not words but beauty, to exist in it, and of it
  • The power of beauty sets me free
  • Yet I am driven on
  • O voluptuous days, O the joy I suffer
  • So the moments pass
  • And now, Phaedrus, I will go
  • No epilogue, I pray you, for your play needs no excuse.
