Friedrich Hölderlin: from Die Kürze
Wie mein Glück, ist mein Lied. -- Willst du im Abendroth
....Froh dich baden? Hinweg ist’s, und die Erd’ ist kalt,
........Und der Vogel der Nacht schwirrt
............Unbequem vor das Auge dir.
[Brevity]
As my luck goes, so goes my song. Would you have the glow
...of the setting sun put you right? It's gone! And the Earth grows cold
......and the ungainly bird of night flutters down
.........much too near, so that you must shield your eyes.
Friedrich Hölderlin (1770-1843): from Die Kürze (Brevity), 1798, English by TC
TO IMPE'ND. v.n. [impendeo, Latin.] To hang over; to be at hand; to press nearly.
Destruction sure o'er all your heads impends;
Ulysses comes, and death his steps attends.
Pope's Odyssey
Samuel Johnson: A Dictionary of the English Language, 1st ed., 1755
