Explore "My only Property" by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
I FEEL that I'm possess'd of nought, Saving the free unfetterd thought
Which from my bosom seeks to flow, And each propitious passing hour That suffers me in all its power
A loving fate with truth to know.
214. ADMONITION. (EPIGRAMS)
WHEREFORE ever ramble on?
For the Good is lying near, Fortune learn to seize alone,
For that Fortune's ever here.
