Adam Davy's Five Dreams about Edward II - 1389 |

Her name was Jane, and neighbour's children we,
And old companions once, as ye may be;
And like to you, on Sundays often strolled
To gipsies' camps to have our fortunes told;
And oft, God rest her, in the fortune-book
Which we at hay-time in our pockets took,
Our pins at
blindfold
on the wheel we stuck,
When hers would always prick the worst of luck;
For try, poor thing, as often as she might,
Her point would always on the blank alight;
Which plainly shows the fortune one's to have,
As such like go unwedded to the grave,--
And so it proved.

The fact, however, that the Poles so early appropriated
a number of abstract expressions from their German
neighbours, neither from Latin, which held the monopoly
of culture, nor as other of the Slavonic nations have
since done, coining words in etymological imitation of
Latin, often in the process violating their own language,
under the
misapprehension
they were ennobling it, this
fact is an interesting illustration of Polish receptivity
and broad-mindedness, of the capability of the language
to digest and assimilate foreign mouthfuls ; these old
German words too lend an archaic and not unpleasant
colour to the language, besides affording the opportunity
of creating doublets at will from Latin, for the sake of
humour or style, as occasion may demand.

So stoops the yellow eagle from on high,
And bears a speckled serpent thro' the sky,
Fast'ning his crooked talons on the prey:
The pris'ner hisses thro' the liquid way;
Resists the royal hawk; and, tho' oppress'd,
She fights in volumes, and erects her crest:
Turn'd to her foe, she stiffens ev'ry scale,
And shoots her forky tongue, and whisks her threat'ning tail Against the victor, all defense is weak:
Th'
imperial
bird still plies her with his beak;
He tears her bowels, and her breast he gores;
Then claps his pinions, and securely soars.

Only two years or steps separate this sociology "from the newest Germany" from fictional heroes such as those in Irmgard Keun's Rayon Girl of 1932, who (obviously under the influence of Kracauer) turn into poets (and in Berlin into prostitutes) when listening to the
gramophone
or the radio.
