For no one could hear their pleas
They wheezed and wheezed until no more
For the air they breathed was poor.”

"Schönen Wagen Hab' ich bestellt, Uns zu tragen Durch die Welt. Vier Heupferdchen sollen ihn Als vier Apfelschimmel ziehn; Sie sind wohl ein gut Gespann, Das mit Rossen sich messen kann; Sie haben Flügel, Sie leiden nicht Zügel, Sie kennen alle Blumen der Au', Und alle Tränken von Tau genau. Es geht nicht im Schritt; Kind, kannst du mit?" (F. Rückert in Kleiner Haushalt) Colfontaine (B)
