Of things that vanish in the course of time:
The everlasting and all spirit-truth
Are found but in the inner depths of man.
Strader:
If, then, the fruitage of a pious faith
Is able to give rest to weary souls,
Such souls may wander safely in that path,
And find sufficiency within themselves.
And yet the power of knowledge, pure and true,
Doth never bloom on such a path as this.
