This Tree’s Leaf…

„Dieses Baums Blatt, der von Osten // Meinem Garten anvertraut, // Giebt geheimen Sinn zu kosten, // Wie's den Wissenden erbaut. …“ (Goethe)

Leaf of Eastern tree transplanted // Here into my garden's field, // Hast me secret meaning granted, // Which adepts’ delight will yield. (translation by Paul Carus)
