What? Not know?
I know! For when a wolf is chased along,
He harms not those before him!
HAGEN.
That is true!
SIEGFRIED.
And more than that! Behind them is a horde
Of savage tribesmen who will never sow,
And yet they want to reap.
HAGEN.
Now do you see?
SIEGFRIED.
But you should show no mercy on the wolf
Because he has no time to guard himself.
