Friedrich Nietzsche: Thus Spake Zarathustra

FOURTH AND LAST PART. 69. LXIX. THE SHADOW. (continued)

Thou poor rover and rambler, thou tired butterfly! wilt thou have a rest and a home this evening? Then go up to my cave!

Thither leadeth the way to my cave. And now will I run quickly away from thee again. Already lieth as it were a shadow upon me.

I will run alone, so that it may again become bright around me. Therefore must I still be a long time merrily upon my legs. In the evening, however, there will be--dancing with me!"--

Thus spake Zarathustra.
