On the Divan

Title:     On the Divan
Author: Johann Wolfgang von Goethe [More Titles by Goethe]

HE who knows himself and others

Here will also see,

That the East and West, like brothers,

Parted ne'er shall be.

Thoughtfully to float for ever

'Tween two worlds, be man's endeavour!

So between the East and West

To revolve, be my behest!

1833.
