First sentence: GOETHE, in two perfect little poems, presented together under the title of Orpheisch, sets forth in the first that, let a man struggle as he may, his fate is irrevocably fixed in the stars; and in the second, that a lamp may be perfectly trimmed and full of oil, but that unless it somehow gets touched with fire, it can never burn.
