Berschlage dir das geschorne Haupt,
Und mit den Någeln zerfleische beide Wangen!
Weh mir, weh!
Dem verruchten, dem listigen Manne
Warf mein Loos mich zu,
280
Dem rechthassenden Scheusal, dem Gesezesseind,
Der Alles dort und Alles hier 1
Feindlich mit doppelter Zunge
Wieder aufregte,
In Haß wandelnd, was zuvor freundlich war. 2

Beklagt mich, Troerfrauen: unselig fahr' ich hin;
Hin bin ich Arme, die
Dem ungluckseligsten
Loose verfallen ist!
