Nimm das Gefäß mir vom Haupte herab, um in nåchtlicher
Klage
Das Schicksal des Vaters laut zu bejammern!

Schlußgesang.
Ein helltonend Lied stimm' ich, ein Todeslied,
Dir an, Vater, der drunten im Grabe wohnt!
Unablåssig und täglich
Klagt mein Schmerz; mit dem Nagel zerfleisch' ich Nacken und Wange mir,
Lege die Hand an's geschorene Haupt,
145
Um dich jammernd, o Todter.
