In me Thou Thyself portrayest,

As in one small drop the sun.

Naught! Yet life I feel throughout me,

And, content with naught about me,

Upward fly with eager heart.

That Thou art, my soul supposes,

Tries, and with this reas’ning closes:

“Sure I am, hence Thou too art.”

Yes, Thou art—all nature tells me;

Whispers back my heart the thought;
