320 When at last it leaves the land, and journeys

To hunt the fields of its former home,

As the fowl flieth many folk view it.

It pleases in passing the people of earth,

Who are seen assembling from south and north;

325 They come from the east, they crowd from the west,

Faring from afar; the folk throng to see

The grace that is given by God in his mercy

To this fairest fowl, which at first received

From gracious God the greatest of natures
