Trieben sie wohl, rauschende tannene Doppelruder
Schwingend, durch wogende Fluten den schwimmenden
Wagen, (in die Segel bliesen die Winde schwellend,) 1
Um die Wette den Reichthum ihres Hauses zu mehren?
Denn süße Hoffnung ist es, die, den Sterblichen
395
Zum Leid, sich nicht erschöpft;
Aus ziehn sie, das Glück zu gewinnen,
Durchirren die Meere, besuchen fremder Menschen Städte,
Voll thörichten Wahns. 2
Harrst du still auf des Glückes Zeit, 3
400
Ungerufen erscheint es.
Zweite Strophe.
