Uschk Name. - Book Of Love.

By Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

THE TYPES. List, and in memory bear These six fond loving pair. Love, when aroused, kept true Rustan and Rad! Strangers approach from far Joseph and Suleika; Love, void of hope, is in Ferhad and Schirin. Born for each other are Medschnun and Lily; Loving, though old and grey, Dschemil saw Boteinah. Love's sweet caprice anon, Brown maid* and Solomon! If thou dost mark them well, Stronger thy love will swell.
