The King too was perplexed and stood confused and at the same time afraid and terrified by seeing the great mound of sand that had appeared where the Lord had dumped His basket load of sand and disappeared in an instant! His fear and worry turned to joy when the Lord through a ‘Asireeri’ – voice in space,spoke:” My dear Pandyan! …show more content…
In the southern part of the Pandyan Kingdom there was a prosperous and beautiful city filled with large domed multi-story buildings. In that city there was a large lotus-filled deep lake. The lake’s banks were surrounded by large stone steps that led from the top right to its bottom to facilitate bathers to enter and exit the waters easily. There were a lot of fish in that lake and a ‘Senkaal Narai’ – a ‘Red-legged Crane’ caught and ate those fish and lived on trees bordering the lake’s …show more content…
Immediately a radiant Vimana (Ariel Craft) flew down from the Holy Realm of the Lord. The Crane was in an instant transformed into the ‘Siva Swarupam’ - ‘likeness’ of the Lord with “four-shoulders” and “three-eyes” and with beautiful sounds of five-types of musical-instruments emanating and with the Devas raining down showers of flowers,the Crane rose into the heavens and in an instant reached the Holy Realm of the Lord to be welcomed into the exalted company of ‘Nandhi Deva’ (the Lord of the Siva Ganas) and the Siva Ganas for

    “The birds sang louder and louder. At last he sun came up bewildering bright. Sylvia could see the white sails of ships out at sea, and the clouds that were purple and rose-colored and yellow at first began to fade away. Where was the white heron’s nest in the sea of green branches, and was this wonderful sight and pageant of the world the only reward for having climbed to such a giddy height?” (Jewett).…

    In 1896, Richard Dehmel released a collection of poems Weib und Welt (Woman and World), causing a prodigious amount of controversy amongst the public for its erotic language. Despite this controversy, Dehmel’s texts influenced German and Austrian composers of the time, such as Richard Strauss, Anton Webern and Alexander von Zemlinsky. Nonetheless, Dehmel had the greatest influence on Arnold Schöenberg, who wrote a letter to Dehmel on 13 December 1917 stating that ‘your poems have had a decisive influence on my development as a composer. They were what first made me try to find a new tone in the lyrical mood’. (Auner & Schöenberg, 2003: 119) As a result of this, Schöenberg retained multiple poems from Dehmel’s Weib und Welt and set the texts to his compositions, one of them being ‘Lieder opus 2’, where three out of the four pieces are inspired by Dehmel: Erwartung, Jesus bettelt and Erhebung. Although, Verklärte Nacht (‘Transfigured Night’), has received the most recognition and is considered to be Schöenberg’s first major work. Composed in 1899, the tone poem was originally arranged for a string sextet: two violins, two violas and…
