    Song of the brave, how thrills thy tone
    As when the Organ's music rolls;
    No gold rewards, but song alone,
    The deeds of great and noble souls.
    [Ger., Hoch klingt das Lied vom braven Mann,
    Wie Orgelton und Glockenklang;
    Wer hohes Muths sich ruhmen kann
    Den lohnt nicht Gold, den lohnt Gesang.]

The truly brave,
When they behold the brave oppressed with odds,
Are touched with a desire to read more

The truly brave,
When they behold the brave oppressed with odds,
Are touched with a desire to shield and save:--
A mixture of wild beasts and demi-gods
Are they--now furious as the sweeping wave,
Now moved with pity; even as sometimes nods
The rugged tree unto the summer wind,
Compassion breathes along the savage mind.
