Tübinger wöhrd. Page from the book ludwig uhland and his homeland tübingen. Poem by ludwig uhland with illustration (wood engraving print) by gustav adolf cloß: if you walk in the evening light, that is the time of the poet's delight, then always turn your eyes to the shine of the sun that has set! your spirit hovers in great celebration, you look into the halls of the temple, where everything holy sways and heavenly forms billow. But when the dark clouds roll down around the sanctuary, then it is done, you turn back, blessed by the wonderful. You will go in quiet emotion, you carry the blessing of the depths within you; the darkness that you saw there shines wildly around you on dark paths. Date: 1887 (book).
