by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749 - 1832)

Die Lobpreisung des Doctor Marianus
 (Sung text for setting by H. Simon)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
 ... 

Doctor Marianus
(in der höchsten, reinlichsten Zelle).
 ... 
(Entzückt.)
 Höchste Herrscherin der Welt!
 Lasse mich, im blauen,
 Ausgespannten Himmelszelt
 Dein Geheimniß schauen.
 Billige was des Mannes Brust
 Ernst und zart beweget
 Und mit heiliger Liebeslust
 Dir entgegen träget.
 Unbezwinglich unser Muth
 Wenn du hehr gebietest,
 Plötzlich mildert sich die Gluth
 Wie du uns befriedest.
 ... 
 ...  

Note: Hermann Simon's setting begins "Höchste Herrscherin der Welt!"; the settings by Mojsisovics-Mojsvár and Röntgen begin "Alles Vergängliche", line -8 (or 8 from the end).
