>In what work of art, of any kind, has the body and soul of the Middle Ages ever been so thoroughly depicted as in Lohengrin?
- Friedrich Nietzsche

>Lohengrin, son of Parzival, descends from the boat, clad in silver armour, helmet on head, shield on shoulder, a small golden trumpet at his side, leaning on his sword. "If I win the victory for you," said Lohengrin to Elsa, "do you want me to be your husband? … Elsa, if you want me to be called your husband…, you have to make me a promise: never will you question me, never will you try to find out where I come from, nor what is my name or my nature." And Elsa: “Never, lord, will you hear that question from me." And, as Lohengrin solemnly repeats the formula of the promise, Elsa replies, “My shield, my angel, my saviour! You who firmly believe in my innocence, could there be a doubt more criminal than not having faith in you? As you defend me in my distress, so will I faithfully keep the law you impose on me." And Lohengrin, hugging her, exclaims, “Elsa, I love you!” There is in this a beauty of dialogue such as is frequently found in Wagner's dramas, all soaked in primitive magic, all enhanced by ideal sentiment, and the solemnity of which in no way diminishes natural grace.

Where did they derive all their values and morals from? Catholicism. Look for Catholic books like
>The Catechism of the Catholic Church
>The Imitation of Christ
>The Imitation of Mary
