Carlyle seldom wrote with more force, or with more justice. Only, to be complete, his paper should have ended with a warning. He has done more than any other writer to perpetuate in England the memories of the great thinkers and actors Fichte, Richter, Arndt, Koerner, Stein, Goethe, who taught their countrymen how to endure defeat and retrieve adversity.
Von J.N. Tetens. Leip. 1788. 8vo. Holstein, Jutland, and Sleswick, countries in which we possess few travels, are accurately described in this work. Reise durch einige Schwedische Provinzen. Von J.W. Schmidt. Hamburgh, 1801. These travels contain curious particulars respecting the Nomadic Laplanders. Arndt, Reise durch Schweden, 1804. 4 vols. 8vo. Berlin, 1806.
And Arndt knew not that while they surrounded him with delights it was only to make him forget his errand. But one day, when the boy lay on a green dell in the lovely fairy-garden, he heard a low, wailing song, and saw a troop of little mortal children at work in the distance.
This noble-spirited German was the founder of a secret society, the Tugendbund, by which a general insurrection against Napoleon was silently prepared throughout Germany. Among its members were numerous statesmen, officers, and literati. Among the latter, Arndt gained great note by his popular style, Jahn by his influence over the rising generation.
"Noble master, anything but this! This little maid we found asleep on our hill, and she is ours for a hundred years." Here Arndt got into a passion; for, convinced of the power the little green cap gave him over the dwarfs, he had long lost all fear of them. He stamped with his foot until the little man leaped up a yard high, and begged his master to be more patient.
But it is his patriotic poems, his "Lyre and Sword," which have invested the name of Koerner with the halo of fame and rendered his memory sacred to his countrymen. His patriotic song, "Where is the German's fatherland," is a universal favorite. Arndt is not less celebrated for his historical and scientific works than for his poems.
For aught that we learn to the contrary, he went on, tithing his mint, anise, and cummin, went on blindfold till he stumbled on the judgment-seat. He brought with him, what the Pharisee left at home, the book of his own guilt, and exhibited all that stood against him there. Arndt.
Christ made it his business to speak in parables; and, indeed, one may say, the whole visible world is only a parable of the invisible world. The parable is not only something intermediate between history and doctrine; it is both history and doctrine at once historical doctrine and doctrinal history. Hence its enchaining, ever fresher, and younger charm. Yes, parable is nature's own language in the human heart; hence its universal intelligibility, its, so to speak, permanent sweet scent, its healing balsam, its mighty power to win one to come again and again to hear. In short, the parable is the voice of the people, and hence also the voice of God. Die Gleichniss-reden Jesu Christi, von Fred. Arndt, vol.
I shall never see you, and you will never see me again." Arndt's Night Underground It was on a dreary winter's night, just such a one as it may be now only you cannot see it for your closed shutters and curtains that two children were coming home from their daily work, for their parents were poor, and Arndt and Reutha had already to use their little hands in labour.
The Moravian brethren, though dating in the first instance from the time of Huss, owed their resuscitation to that wave of mystic pietism which passed through Germany in the seventeenth century, showing its early power in the writings of Behmen, and reaching its full tide in the new vigour of spiritual life inspired into the Lutheran Church by the activity of Arndt and Spener.
