6 o 77?^^ TMENT OF NA TURE IN GERMAN LITER A TURE Herzlich sei mir gegriisst, werthes Cheruskaland !, . . . Dir gab Mutter Natur .... Einfalt und Wiirde ! Wolkenhohnende Gipfel, donnerhallende Strome dir ! . . . . Wie der schirmende Forst deinem erhabenen Nacken schattet ! ■ In his Freiheitsgesang (1775) he sees the indications of Germany's future greatness, just as he sees in the early morning the indications of the full beauty of the Brocken at midday : " Wie der Brocken stolz, wenn der Morge...nrothe Licht Seine Scheitel rothet, noch finster unter ihm liegen die Thale, und nur dammern die Gipfel um ihn her ! " Lastly we should add a few words concerning his treatment of the moon and of winter. He attributes human qualities to the moon, when he imagines her to be sad, because some friend has departed, " Schied dir ein Freund, o Mond ? Du blickst so traurig Durch die hangenden Maien ! " and as he thinks of his mother he wonders whether the moon, too, " denkt an sie zuriick. "^ His attitude toward winter is even more noteworthy, for, with the exception of Brockes and Klopstock, none of his predecessors recorded the charms of this season ; and even of these two it can hardly be said that they fully appreciated a winter landscape.
