Analysis of Ever And Everywhere

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 1749 (Frankfurt) – 1832 (Weimar)



FAR explore the mountain hollow,
High in air the clouds then follow!

To each brook and vale the Muse

Thousand times her call renews.

Soon as a flow'ret blooms in spring,
It wakens many a strain;

And when Time spreads his fleeting wing,

The seasons come again.
