If you should ever find me lolling on a bed of ease,

let me done for on the spot!

If you ever lure me with your lying flatteries,
and I find satisfaction in myself,
if you bamboozle me with pleasure,
then let this be my final day!
This bet I offer you!

Faust, 131

MEPHISTOPHELES

And then you'll speak of faith and love eternal,

of a single, overpowering urge-
will that flow so easily from your heart?

FAUST

Enough, I say it will.

Faust, 269

Fill your heart to overflowing,

and when you feel profoundest bliss,
then call it what you will:
Good fortune! Heart! Love! or God!
I have no name for it!
Feeling is all;
the name is sound and smoke,
beclouding Heaven's glow.

Faust, 311
