Summary

[edit]
Description
Deutsch: Goethes Reinschrift des Mottos seiner Marienbader Elegie: „Und wenn der Mensch in seiner Quaal verstummt / Gab mir ein Gott zu sagen was ich leide.“ Das Motto ist eine Abwandlung dessen, was der Dichter Torquato Tasso in Goethes Schauspiel Torquato Tasso sagt (V, 5, Deutsches Textarchiv): „Und wenn der Mensch in seiner Qual verstummt, / Gab mir ein Gott, zu sagen wie ich leide.“
English: Goethe's fair copy of the motto of his Marienbad Elegy: "And when man in his agony becomes silent, / A god gave me to say what I suffer." The motto is a modification of what the poet Torquato Tasso says in Goethe's drama Torquato Tasso (V, 5): "And when man in his agony becomes silent, / A god gave me to say how I suffer."
