(I) PRELUDE
|
|
[SPEECH:]
|
|
"Shadows of shadows passing. It is now 1831, and as always I am
|
absorbed with a delicate thought. It is how poetry has indefinite
|
sensations, to which end music is inessential. Since the comprehension
|
of sweet sound is our most indefinite conception, music, when combined
|
with a pleasurable idea, is poetry. Music without the idea is simply music.
|
Without music or an intriguing idea, colour becomes pallor, man becomes
|
carcase, home becomes catacomb, and the dead are but for a moment
|
motionless."
