In the absence of conventional metre, Rilke structures the poem through alliteration, most notably through the recurring “s” phoneme, its liquid qualities serving to underscore the erotic (or, at least, sexually reproductive) undertones of the actions that are associated with the phallic “Rohr” (“pipe” or “tube”) and with, as the plant releases its sap, the ejaculatory “süßesten Leistung” (literally, “sweetest achievement”).

The query is repeated four times, its insistence farming the non-achievement of the performers, whose efforts are qualified by phrases of restriction such as “still heavy” and “in vain”. “Leaping” is probably the best translation; “leaping up” seeks to retain the “auf” in the original German but is not idiomatic English.

The repetitive nature of his actions is established in the text through consonance (and most notably through sibilance), and through the repetition of a small number of key words, such as the positional “um” and the substantives “Unlust”, “Schein” and “Frucht” (the latter both used as prefixes).

The lines in the stanza continue, “die Fahrenden, diese ein wenig / Flüchtigern noch als wir selbst, die dringend von früh an /wringt ein wem, wem zu Liebe / niemals zufriedener Wille?”. “Auslassen” means to “leave out” something, so “discarded” and “excluded” are therefore possible as translations, but they lack the force of the original German (and raise queries as to what has been discarded or excluded). The translations cited here diverge from one another, bringing to light differing interpretations of the text. Heroes, perhaps, and those who have left the world early. Was he not already a hero when he was inside you, oh mother? The son views these sacrifices as just one further “station of love”, to be greeted with smiling indifference.

Translations include: “they come down on the threadbare / carpet, thinned by their everlasting / upspringing, this carpet forlornly / lost in the cosmos” (L/S), “they land / on the threadbare carpet, worn constantly thinner / by their perpetual leaping, this carpet that is lost / in infinite space” (M), “they land on the shredded / mat they have worn, by their perpetual / leaping, thinner and thinner, on what is now a lost / mat in the universe” (R/S), “stamp the threadbare carpet / worn thin with their feet, their constant leaping up / on a carpet cut loose in the universe –” (MC).

Unlike the fig tree, a symbol of reproductive potency, “we” (that collective subject that appears elsewhere in the Elegies, representing the human race, to which the lyrical subject, the speaking “I”, at times seems to belong, at other times does not) can get no further than a self-congratulatory blooming, which is signified through the impersonal formation, “rühmt”, a term of vain indulgence that pointedly contrasts with the earlier “ungerühmt” of the fig tree, who requires no such self-indulgence. castle of Miramare with its marvellous park.
