Only once, clasping his stomach as the car rocked and rolled him between nightmares and dreams, he whimpered a little.
Nur einmal, während der Waggon ihn zwischen Traum und Alptraum rüttelnd hin- und herwiegte, preßte er sich die Hände auf den Magen und wimmerte ein wenig.

My reverential awe passed into unspeakable rapture. I rose; we clasped each other in our arms; we pressed our lips upon each other's, speechless, weeping, sobbing, in delicious, nameless pain.
Da vergingen die Schauer in namenloses Entzücken, das mich mit sanfter Glut durchströmte - ich stand auf - wir schlossen uns in die Arme - wir drückten Lipp auf Lippe - sprachlos - weinend -schluchzend vor süßem unnennbaren Weh!

A wild, terrible form started up; it clasped me with burning arms, and was carrying me away to the black abyss. Then a song came shining through the darkness, whose tones had the mild, soft radiance of the light of stars.
Eine wilde entsetzliche Gestalt stieg auf, umfaßte mich mit glühenden Armen und wollte mich hinabreißen in den schwarzen Abgrund. Doch plötzlich leuchtete ein Lied durch die Finsternis, dessen Töne funkelten wie milder Sternenschimmer.
