Schiller, who first made his acquaintance at this time, writes to Korner : — " I doubt that we shall ever become intimate. Much that to me is still of great interest he has already outlived. He is so far beyond me, not so much in years as in experience and cul- ture, that we can never come together in one course." GOETHE. 267 How greatly Schiller erred in the supposition that they never could become intimate, how close the inti- macy which grew up between them, what harmony of sentiment, how fr...iendly and mutually helpful their co- operation, is sufficiently notorious. But such was the first aspect which Goethe presented to strangers at this period of his life; he rather re- pelled than attracted, until nearer acquaintance learned rightly to interpret the man, and intellectual or moral affinity bridged the chasm which seemed to divide him from his kind. In part, too, the distance and reserve of which people complained was a necessary measure of self-defence against the disturbing importunities of social life.
