“TlECK^ who has embodied so many Runic secrets^ explained to me what I have often felt toward myself^ when he tells of the poor change- ling, who, turned from the door of her adopted home, sat down on a stone and so pitied herself that she wept.”
Inferred In this passage from her autobiography, Margaret Fuller engages with Ludwig Tieck's collection Phantasus (1812–16), describing the author as one who "has embodied so many Runic secrets." Fuller recounts a changeling’s self-pity and then a "wonderful bird, singing in the wild forest," echoing motifs suggestive of Tieck’s tales, particularly "Der blonde Eckbert" or "Die Elfen," both featured within Phantasus.
