Er schläft! So recht, ihr luft'gen zarten Jungen!
Ihr habt ihn treulich eingesungen!
Für dies Konzert bin ich in eurer Schuld.
Du bist noch nicht der Mann, den Teufel festzuhalten!

[Well done, my dainty spirits! now he slumbers!
Ye have entranc'd him fairly with your numbers!
This minstrelsy of yours I must repay,
Thou art not yet the man to hold the devil fast!]

Goethe, Faust
[Bayard Taylor via Project Gutenberg for the English translation]
