Background

A description of the experience
'Cor inquietum' [translated by John Irons
Aldrig kan själens längtan stillas, icke jordens riken, brusande städer och hafvens glans förmå att lindra dess eviga oro. O, hvem spelar dessa toner, denne svidande musik på mitt hjärtas strängar, spända allti, alltid alltför hårdt?
|
Nothing soul’s longing e’er appeases, none of earth’s dominions, dull-roaring cities or oceans’ gleam can soothe completely its fixed agitation. O, who’s playing all this music, these so sorely smarting notes on my aching heartstrings, tautened always, always, far too tight?
