Exchange

Night must wander abroad,

as soon as day comes to the house.

Delight and burden follow one another;

joy is often restrained

and suppressed with grief,

but however never suffocated completely.

Great heaps of trouble penetrate you:

then mark this comfort, my spirit!

Water can easily run away,

that all the bank is washed away;

the greater grief, fear and agony,

the nearer is their end.
