Er dffnet die Pforten auch jezt;
Seinen Gastfreund grußt er mit thrånendem Blick,
Um die Gattinn weint er, die liebende, die
Jungst im Palaste verschied:
Ein erhabener Sinn hegt fromme Sitte,
585
Und die Fülle der Weisheit wohnt dem Edeln
In der Brust. Diese Hoffnung nåhr' ich im Busen:
Wohlergehn wird es noch dem Frommen.
