Of what I really am. Now must I hear

Thee speak in front of Lucifer, to see

What I in future years shall yet achieve.

Thomasius’ Double:

’Tis true I often was allowed to come

And bring Johannes knowledge of himself.

But I could only work in those soul depths,

Which still are hidden from his consciousness.

My life within him hath for some long time

Been subject to considerable change.
