Lyrically intense German-language poet Rainer Maria Rilke (1875 - 1926) was a guest at the Castle Duino, near Trieste, between October 1911 and May 1912. This 10-poem cycle of Duino Elegies were begun there but not finished until a decade later. Intensely mystical and religious, the work has been described as an "impassioned monologue" of one coming to terms with human existence --- of man's essential loneliness, the perfection of the angels, life and death, love and lovers. The last 4 lines read: "Then we, who think of rising happiness/ would feel the emotion/ that almost confounds us/ when a happy Thing falls". Strong copy despite flaws.

René Karl Wilhelm Johann Josef Maria Rilke (1875 ? 1926), shortened to Rainer Maria Rilke, was an Austrian poet and novelist. Acclaimed as an idiosyncratic and expressive poet, he is widely recognized as a significant writer in the German language. His work is viewed by critics and scholars as possessing undertones of mysticism, exploring themes of subjective experience and disbelief. Carlyle Ferren MacIntyre (1890 - 1967) was an American poet, known for his poetry and translations of Baudelaire, Verlaine, George, Goethe and Rilke.
