Auden
Accurate Scholarship can
Unearth the whole offence
From Luther until now
That has driven a culture mad,
Find what occurred at Linz,
What huge imago made
a psychopathic god:
I and the public know
What all schoolchildren learn,
Those to whom evil is done
Do evil in return.
From September 1, 1939 by W. H. AUDEN

Du lebst noch! Immer wieder gut, bei Dir vorbeizuschauen. (Ich hoffe, Du erkennst mich -- habe mich gerade an Dich erinnert, weil ich mein eigenes Blog-Archiv von Anno 2001 wieder gelesen habe.)
