Note 5 — VI YOUNG GERMANY

Mary Morison translation

Epigram: "Du hast es lang genug getrieben, Niederträchtig vom Hohen geschrieben. Dass du dein eignes Volk gescholten, Die Jugend hat es dir vergolten."

Thou hast long enough had thy way, long enough reviled what is great; youth now requites thee for the insults offered to thine own nation.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
