_Tieck's Comoedia Divina._--I copied the following lines six years ago from
a review in a Munich newspaper of Batornicki's _Ungöttliche Comödie_. They
were cited as from Tieck's suppressed (zurückgezogen) satire, _La Comödie
Divina_, from which Batornicki was accused of plundering freely, thinking
that, from its variety, he would not be detected:
"Spitzt so hoch ihr könnt euer Ohr,
Gar wunderbare Dinge kommen hier vor.
Gott Vater identifieirt sich mit der Kreatur,
Denn er will anschauen die absolute Natur;
Aber zum Bewustseyn kann er nicht gedeihen,
Drum muss er sich mit sich selbst entzweien."
I omitted to note the paper, but preserved the lines as remarkable. I have
since tried to find some account of _La Divina Comedia_, but in vain. It is
not noticed in any biography of Tieck. Can any of your readers tell me what
it is, or who wrote it?
