72. "Deus se fecit olim homo,"&c. A very curious epigram to this effect was placed upon "Pasquin" while the writer was in Rome, during a past winter. It was as follows:- "Perche Eva mangio il pomo Iddio per riscattarci si fece uomo, Ed ora il Nono Pio Per mantenerci schiavi, si fa Dio." 73. M'Closky. An Irish adventurer, admirably depicted by Mr. Charles Lever. 74. "Do you not see that if you are infallible, and wish to give it out." 75. "During its life." 76. "Thou art a very puppy." 77. This was the late Charles Astor Bristed of New York, to whom many of these ballads were addressed in letters. 78. Lines from Gudrun, each of which is freely translated by the lines following it. 79. "Go forth, my book, through all the world, Bear what thy fate may be! They may bite thee, they may tear thee, So they do no harm to me!" 80. "Pull on your boots so rough and tough, And whet your sword beside, We have been lazy long enough, The road is worth the ride." 81. Schicksal, Destiny. 82. Menschheitsideal, Human Ideal. 83. A little stream in Cincinnati, beyond which lies the German quarter, is known as the Rhine. 84. That was a dark young gypsy. 85. Ah, Rosalie, my lovely one! 86. Blood-coloured is the lovely rose. 87. Who roses picks his finger pricks No matter what befall; In winter-time he finds them gone And gets no rose at all. Our petting and caressing here, Our joy or misery It all shall rest sub rosa, love, And our own secret be! 88. "Thou'rt right, my darling son." 89. "Good-bye, my friend, my Frederick!" 90. Woppenshield, coat of arms. Here ends the Project Gutenberg edition of Charles G. Leland's "The Breitmann Ballads"
