English poem
The Fox And Huntsman.
by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749–1832)
HARD 'tis on a fox's traces To arrive, midst forest-glades; Hopeless utterly the chase is, If his flight the huntsman aids. And so 'tis with many a wonder, (Why A B make Ab in fact,) Over which we gape and blunder, And our head and brains distract.
