Ein Gott, ein Gott hört des Gerechten Bitte,
750
Und merkt auf das Wort des Bösen.
Das Gold, das Gluck lenkt das Gemuth
Der Menschen irr, daß es zu Stolz,
Zu Gewalt sich wendet.
Gleichmuthig mag ja Keiner schau'n in's Kunftige,
755
Der Hohn dem Recht geboten und der Sünde fröhnt:
Ihm bricht des Glucks schwarzumwölkter Wagen.
Zweite Strophe.
