He must devote himself unto the world

As best he can: naught from that other man

Must mingle and disturb what now at last

He hath as true self-knowledge recognized.

Contained in his own world he will go on,

If his own strength and help from both his friends

Shall in the future serve to form his fate.

Maria:

Whether thou walk’st in error or in truth

Thou canst keep ever clear the view ahead;
