grave, sensible y profunda Germania de

Heine y de Juan Pablo, tan llena de sus-
tancia metafisica, de hunor ~poetico, de ele-
gancias y fervores morales, bajo los fe-

de 10 pasado, enemigo de toda trad1clon,
p%rofeta de una estirpe de superhombres
egoistas, infieles a la mission intellectual de
su raza, entregados al quito de la voluntad
y de la fuerza? iQue desencanto seria
para un pOeta c%ristiano y espanol con sus
