From you to youI go commanded.

In betweenthe garland is hanging in chance; but if youtake it up and up and up: look:all becomes festival!  (original German) Du nur, einzig du

Dein bin ich, dein; wieviel mir die Zeit auchanhat.   Von dir zu dirbin ich befohlen.   Dazwischenhängt die Guirlande im Zufall, dass aber du sieauf- und auf- und aufnimmst:siehe: die Feste!
