POEMS OF GOETHE 15
Newly delivered, the wife of a once rich proprietor
lieth,
Whom, with child as she was, I scarce saved with the steers
and the wagon.
Slowly we follow the rest, while in life she hath hardly
continued.
Naked now on her arm the new-born infant is lying,
And with but scanty means our people are able to
help us.
If in the village hard by, where we think of resting,
we find them;
Though I am greatly in fear they already are gone along
past it.
If from these parts you come, and a store of superflu-
ous linen
Anywhere have at command, on the poor it were kind
to bestow it.

Thus she spake; and, faint and pale, from the straw
the poor woman
Rising showed herself to me; when thus in return I
addressed them :
'Good men, surely, oft are warned by a spirit from
heaven,
So that they feel the need which oer their poor brother
is hanging:
For my mother, your trouble thus feeling beforehand,
a bundle
Gave me, wherewith at once to supply the wants of
the naked.
Then I untied the knots of the cord, and the dressing-
gown gave her.
Once our father's, and with it I gave the chemisesand
flannel.
And she thanked me with joy, and exclaimed : 'The
prosperous think not
Miracles still are wrought ; for man in misery only
