(Auto-generated)
- I dote on myself, there is that lot of me and all so luscious,
Each moment and whatever happens thrills me with joy,
I cannot tell how my ankles bend, nor whence the cause of my faintest wish,
Nor the cause of the friendship I emit, nor the cause of the
friendship I take again.†Chpt 3emit = send out - O I the same,
O nor down-balls nor perfumes, nor the high rain-emitting clouds,
are borne through the open air,
Any more than my soul is borne through the open air,
Wafted in all directions O love, for friendship, for you.†Chpt 5 *emitting = sending out - O the joy of that vast elemental sympathy which only the human soul is
capable of generating and emitting in steady and limitless floods.†Chpt 11
