#s. lilienthal

  consciousness of his personal identity confused excess of fancy, ecstasy, makes verses

more in the fresh air than in the room errors as to time and velocity of gait

awkward, lets everything drop

confounds things of the present with those of the past converses with people who are not present

considers the stove a tree and wants to climb up

undertakes many things, perseveres in nothing as if wrapped in a fog only conscious of himself as in a dream
