Als nun die Nacht Gebirg' und Thal Vermummt in Rabenschatten, Und Hochburgs Lampen uberall Schon ausgeflimmert hatten, Und alles tief entschlafen war; Doch nur das Fraulein immerdar, Voll Fieberangst, noch wachte, Und seinen Ritter dachte: Da horch!

Or, perhaps, the words of Schiller’s “Song of the Bell” may not be unknown to you, and hum in your ears: Frisch, gesellen, seyd zur hand! Von der stirne heiss, Rinnen muss der schweiss.
An elegant complete edition of the works of Kepler is at present being issued at Frankfort, under the editorship of Frisch. It is to be in sixteen volumes, 8vo, two of which are published.
