Der alte Dichter setzte sich an den Kachelofen, nahm den kleinen Knaben auf den Schoss, drückte das Wasser aus seinem Haar, wärmte seine Hände in seinen und kochte ihm süssen Wein.

Da kam er wieder zu sich, sprang auf den Fussboden hinunter und tanzte um den alten Dichter herum.

"Du bist ein lustiger Knabe!" sagte der Alte.

The old poet seated himself beside his hearth, and took the little fellow on his lap ; he squeezed the water out of his dripping hair, warmed his hands between his own, and boiled for him some sweet wine.

Then the boy recovered, his cheeks again grew rosy, he jumped down from the lap where he was sitting, and danced round the kind old poet.

"You are a merry fellow," said the old man.
