thrilling, too, with the rapture of pas
sionate parting, devoted deaths, or glad
returns. And in the whole circle of its sub
jects and passions, from the quiet contem-
plation of nature to patriotic and martial
pride, there is one thing that this music
always is-it is always beIseoing in tone; there
is not a skeptical song, not faithless refrain,
not melody or note of moral indifference or
hopelessness in these people's-songs, so far as
we have become acquainted with them. "In
his songs and in his lectures, it has been said,
''the German dreams of making heaven of
earth. A kind of glow is cast over all common
things and daily life; nature is beautiful in
the common landscapes of the Fatherland.
The hunters life and the song of the shep-
herd boy; the sleeping babe and the quiet of
the night; friendship and companionship;
domestic peace and modest content; the de-
lights of social pleasure and the German
beer-mug; the dance and common stories; all
these are sung with certain warm heartiness
and cheer, a simple good faith and belief in
human nature and pleasure in things as we
find them; a sensitiveness to the lovely side
of common things and the exalted side of
lowly things, that comes like benediction
to the tired and disappointed, and sings the
heart into ''leisure from itself, to soothe
and sympathize. zone of the most amiable
characteristics of German poetry" says
writer, els its celebration of the domestic
affections. Goethe has given us domestic
epic in his Hermann and Dorothea, and
Voss, in his Iuise has produced popular
idyl on the espousals of a country parsons
daughter. Even Freiligrath softens the music
of his verse when he sings of the old pic
tured Bible in his fathers house"
