by means of that gigantic device we may

“erkennen, was die Welt im innersten zusammenhält”
(Goethe, „Faust“)

how to translate it?
I will try….

“we will discover wath held together the world in the innermost”

that’s not correct I assume,
who can do better?

ps

btw,
my friend ghosty (another forum) suggest the following translation

"Realize what keeps the world together in the innermost"

what do you mean
(or are there only such non poetic guys :-( )
