Calendar of the Soul

  Into our inner being
  The riches of the senses pour.
  The Cosmic Spirit finds itself
  Reflected in the human eye,
  Which ever must renew its strength
  From out that spirit source.

  Ins Innre des Menschenwesens
  Ergiesst der Sinne Reichtum sich,
  Es findet sich der Weltengeist
  Im Spiegelbild des Menschenauges,
  Das seine Kraft aus ihm
  Sich neu erschaffen muss.

  Into man's inner world the senses pour
  their cornucopia;
  the Spirit of the worlds retrieves Itself
  here in the mirror of the eye,
  the human eye that from Itself as source
  must ever and again renew its force.
