Note 97 — Lohengrin
Smith Ely Jelliffe translation
Compare E. Meyer (Bericht d. Kgl. preuss. Akad. d. Wiss., XXXI, 1905, p. 640). The Moses legends and the Levites: “Presumably Moses was originally the son of the tyrant’s daughter (who is now his foster mother), and probably of divine origin.” The subsequent elaboration into the present form is probably referable to national motives.
