Poem by Friedrich Hölderlin from Hyperion (Volume One, Book One) /
Recitation: Reiner Unglaub /
Note: O man is a god when he dreams, a beggar when he reflects, and when the enthusiasm is gone, he stands there like a wayward son whom his father has cast from the house, and contemplates the meager pennies that pity has given him for his journey (F. Hölderlin)
