Jetzt wird reicher Auftrag der Wnde gefallen; Saatkrhen krchzen ber der entsetzlichen Ruine; im kahlen Licht Ihres strmischen Auges, nimmt Magie Flug wie eine eingeschchterte Hexe und beendigt Schlo, wenn reale Tage brechen. Zerbrochene Pfosten gestalten Aussichten des Felsens; Whrend Sie im Mantel und im Riegel heroisch stehen, sitze ich bestanden im griechischen Kittel und im Psyche-Knoten, verwurzelt zu Ihrem schwarzen Blick, im Spiel gedreht tragisch: Welchem kann solche Trockenfule, die auf unserem bankrotten Zustand, welche Zeremonie von Wrtern wrought ist, die Verwstung ausbessern?
