Text Appearing Before Image:
d luck. Durch die Walder (Thro the Forest) By Karl Jorn, Tenor (In German) *45078 10-inch, $1.00 He believes he is cursed by an evil spiritwhich causes his hand to fail. Max: Oh, I can bear my fate no longer! Een hope is banished from my soul!What unknown grief thus haunts my spirit, And oer me works its dark control?Thro the forests, thro the meadows, Joy was wont with me to stray,While my rifle, never failing, Made each bird and beast my prey.When at length from chase returning, Ere home rose before my sight,Agnes, smiling met me, Clothd in beautys heavenly light.But now am I by Heaven forsaken,And left—the power of chance to know! Will hopes long slumber ever waken? Or am I doomed to endless woe?Now, methinks, beside her lattice, I my lovely fair one see;While her ear seems fondly listening, Every coming sound for me:See, she fondly waves a welcome,— Fancys eye her lover sees;But her signal gains no answer, Save the sigh of whispering trees!What darkning power is ruling oer me?
