NedTrain: no news, we are permanently closed!

And he was told but these few words
Which opened up his heart
“If ye cannot bring good news, then don’t bring any”

(Bob Dylan in The wicked messenger)

De l’amusement sans fin

“Wer ist beglückter als du?
Nichts als Vergnügen und Ruh!
Spielwerk und Zucker vollauf,
und noch Karossen im Lauf,
alles besorgt und bereit,
daß nur mein Prinzchen nicht schreit.
Was wird da künftig erst sein?
Schlafe, mein Prinzchen, schlaf ein.”

(F.W. Gotter in Wiegenlied)

What about “halfland”?

“At times I think there are no words
But these to tell what’s true
And there are no truths outside the Gates of Eden”

(Bob Dylan in Gates of Eden)
Vlaardingen (NL)

Just the goal stands up!

“”Is football playing
Along the river-shore,
With lads to chase the leather,
Now I stand up no more?”

Ay, the ball is flying,
The lads play heart and soul;
The goal stands up, the keeper
Stands up to keep the goal. “

(A.E. Housman in A Shropshire lad, no. 27)

The timid cow

“The friendly cow all red and white,
I love with all my heart.
She gives me cream with all her might,
To eat with apple tart.”

(R.L. Stevenson in The cow)
