Devise some test of love, some arduous feat

To be performed for you: say on! If night

Be spent the while, the better! Recall how oft

My wondrous plans and dreams and hopes and fears

Have—never wearied you, oh no!—as I

Recall, and never vividly as now,

Your true affection, born when Einsiedeln

And its green hills were all the world to us;

And still increasing to this night which ends

My further stay at Würzburg. Oh, one day
