Note 111 — PART I PLAYFUL EXPERIMENTATION
Elizabeth L. Baldwin translation
“There, see, the curtain dark already rolls away! The night must fly, now dreams the glorious day; The crimson lips that lay fast closed so long, Breathe now, half ope’d, a sweet, low song; Once more the eye gleams bright, and, like a god, the day Bounds forward to begin again his royal way.”
