'Ad exercitium Salamandri! Eins! Zwei! Drei! Greif brought his glass down upon the table as he spoke the last words, and the long roll began, like rattling musketry, again and again, to the due number of times. Greif sat down amidst thunders of applause.
During the last few years of his life he had been engaged in a desultory way upon the composition of a comic opera, 'Die drei Pintos, founded upon a Spanish subject.

Goethe perceived the importance of the same truth: "Wer nicht von drei tausend Jahren sich weiss Rechenschaft zu geben, Bleib' im Dunkeln unerfahren, mag von Tag Zu Tage leben!" At certain epochs in the history of the world great events have happened. Often such epochs are followed by epochs of inertia.
Suddenly the loud, quivering tones of the post-horn were heard, "Es ritten drei Reiter zum Thore hinaus." "He has come!" cried Marie, and her face beamed with delight. "He calls me! I am coming!
