“I felt it at last - "I am - I am alone" Vainly I stretch out my arms, vainly pour forth my supplications with such earnestness, such fullness, that I think the moon herself will be drawn down to answer them - still I am alone no voice answers me from the grove and the stars glimmer down cold kindness on my woe:' - Stella / Goethe / 'Oh look down, my father on the misery, the destruction of thy children _ Suffering I have learned much.”
