DAS SCHLOSS AM MEER.

(UHLAND.)

The high castle by the sea?

Golden and red thereover

Sail the clouds noiselessly.

Full fain would it bend low -

To the gay clouds of evening

Full fain would rise and go.

"Sure have mine eyes beheld it,

That castle by the sea,

And the moon thereover floating,

And the mist about it free."

The breezes, the ocean billows,

Echoed they sweet and strong?

Heard'st thou from the spacious chambers
