Question
A poem in this collection states that “our own heart exceeds us” and asks “think of the hands / how they rest without weight.” In A. S. Kline’s translation, this collection ends by describing “the emotion / that almost dismays us, / when a joyful thing falls.” In this collection, the narrator imagines “the grieving for Linos (“LIE-noss”)” and states that “if one were to suddenly / take me to its heart, I would vanish into its / stronger existence” in a poem that claims that (*) “beauty is nothing but the beginning of terror.” This ten-poem collection includes the line “every angel is terrifying.” For 10 points, the line “who, if I cried out, would hear me among the Angelic orders?” opens what collection by Rainer Maria Rilke ■END■
