Explore "All those who Seek Thee Tempt Thee" by Rainer Maria Rilke on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
All those who seek Thee tempt Thee, / And those who find would bind Thee / To gesture and to form.
But I would comprehend Thee / As the wide Earth unfolds Thee. / Thou growest with my maturity, / Thou Art in calm and storm.
I ask of Thee no vanity / To evidence and prove Thee. / Thou Wert in eons old.
Perform no miracles for me, / But justify Thy laws to me / Which, as the years pass by me. / All soundlessly unfold.
