Description

Faust; a Tragedy, Translated from the German of Goethe by Charles Timothy Brooks Night. In a narrow high-arched Gothic room, FAUST sitting uneasy at his desk. Faust. Have now, alas! quite studied throughPhilosophy and Medicine, And Law, and ah! Theology, too, With hot desire the truth to win!And here, at last, I stand, poor fool!As wise as when I entered school;Am called Magister, Doctor, indeed, -Ten livelong years cease not to leadBackward and forward, to and fro, My scholars by the nose-and lo!Just nothing, I see, is the sum of our learning, To the very core of my heart 'tis burning.'Tis true I'm more clever than all the foplings, Doctors, Magisters, Authors, and Popelings;Am plagued by no scruple, nor doubt, nor cavil, Nor lingering fear of hell or devil-What then? all pleasure is fled forever;To know one thing I vainly endeavor, There's nothing wherein one fellow-creatureCould be mended or bettered with me for a teacher.And then, too, nor goods nor gold have I, Nor fame nor worldly dignity, -A condition no dog could longer live in!And so to magic my soul I've given, If, haply, by spirits' mouth and might, Some mysteries may not be brought to light;That to teach, no longer may be my lot, With bitter sweat, what I need to be taught;That I may know what the world containsIn its innermost heart and finer veins, See all its energies and seedsAnd deal no more in words but in deeds.
