This German Header is intended especially for the use of students in Colleges, Academies, and High-schools who have finished the author's " German Course. 1 '' AVe would draw attention to the following features in the German Reader : The selections are made from the works of the ' best German writers of the present century. While a fair predominance is given to the writers of the first half of this century, which is usually termed by historians the second classical period of the German language and litera- ture,* due prominence is also given to the language of the present day, as employed by the best writers of the last twenty years. That the student may feel as definitely as possible the influence and spirit of the language, the selec- tions have especial reference" to Germany. German history, biography, geography, mythology, and social life and cus- toms are largely illustrated. An additional feature in the selections, though one entirely subordinate to the chief ob- ject of the Reader, which is to present representative exam- ples of written and spoken German, is the valuable informa- tion that is given with reference to Germany, and which is usually not accessible, in a convenient and attractive form, to the American student. __ . , In order to meet the taste, as far as possible, of ^' every class of students, and also for the purpose of presenting the language in its most varied forms and phases, the greatest possible variety has been aimed at in the * See § 13 and § 1G in the German Course. IV INTRODUCTION. subjects and the character of the selections. While great prominence is given to descriptive articles upon German his- tory, biography, and geography, the customs of social life and the characteristics of the people are largely illustrated by se- lections from the best modern writers of lyric poetry, ro- mance, comedy, and tragedy. The student will realize an im- portant artistic advantage from having the poetic and dra- matic pieces given entire, not in fragmentary extracts. The peculiarities of style in scientific writings in the Ger- man language are illustrated by short treatises upon subjects > in different branches of science, as astronomy, anatomy, and German grammar. The student of the fine arts will be inter- ested in biographical sketches of some of the most famous German artists during the Middle Ages, and in critical sketch- es upon the present state of the arts of architecture, sculp- ture, and painting in Germany. As the Reader will be used by classes of both sexes, noth- ing: of a sentimental nature is introduced which can offend a person of the most fastidious taste ; and as it will be used by persons of the most opposite religious creeds, nothing is ad- mitted which can offend persons of any faith. Abstruse writ- ings on philosophy are also unrepresented, as fitted only for persons who have for a long time been familiar with the spirit and the idioms of the language. These subjects, love and sentiment, religion, and philosophy, which enter so largely into German literature, are left to be pursued later, according to the predilection of the individual student. p , As it is highly important, in the study of a foreign *' language, that the learner should first become fully imbued with the spirit and genius of the language as shown in the natural and direct order of words in sentences, more space is given in this Reader to prose than to poetry, in which occur so many inverted constructions and obscure figures of speech. Still, a fair proportion of the space is de- voted to selections from the most popular German poets. All of the poetical compositions given are complete pieces ; most of them are quite short, and the majority are taken from the lyric poetry in which German literature is so rich. INTRODUCTION. It might be commended, as a useful and entertaining exer- cise for the students, while the classes are reviewing, to com- mit to memory some of these charming pieces of lyric poetry, and to repeat them in the recitation-room. An interest might be added to the oratorical exercises of the institution by hav- ing these poems recited in declamation. . The selections are not grouped with refer- ° ' ence to their subject matter, but they are arranged with reference to producing a pleasing variety throughout the entire book. The historical and biographical articles follow each other in chronological order. With these are interspersed descriptions of scenery, of cities and regions of country, entertaining anecdotes and fables, selections from the poets, comedy, tragedy, romance, articles upon science, and criticisms upon art, so as to keep the interest of the stu- dent more fresh by frequent change of subject and style than is possible when articles of the same kind follow each other for many pages. The simpler and easier style of narration and description predominates in the first part of the book, the longer pieces, and those of more intricate and difficult style, being reserved till the latter part. Notes and The notes contain elucidations of the more References, difficult passages and idioms, and explana- tions of many of the historical events and social customs which are alluded to in the text. Much attention has been given also to the history of the language. The derivation and composition of pure German words is illustrated with sufficient fullness. The etymology of words of foreign origin is largely treated. In most cases, where a common deriva- tion can be traced, parallel etymologies of words in the En- glish language are given. The student will thus be led to realize one of the greatest benefits that are to be derived from the study of foreign languages in the increased knowl- edge which he will gain of the structure and history of the English language. In many cases the derivation is traced, also, of words of German origin in the English and other VI INTRODUCTION. modern European languages, especially in the Romance lan- guages. Copious references to the German Course are inter- spersed throughout the notes. The vocabulary contains, of course, only the Vocabulary. wordfl that occur in the text of the R ea( j e r. Generally only those significations are given in which the words are used in the passages where they are found. To make the vocabulary more practical, and especially for the convenience of students who may not desire to occupy them- selves very deeply with the history and development of the language, the vocabulary is not encumbered with philological and etymological notes, but these are all grouped together, as explained above, under the head of " Notes and Refer- ences." As far as is possible without creating confusion and caus- ing loss of time, derivatives and compounds are given under the heading of the primitive word, or of the first part of the compound word. With many compound verbs the prefix is indicated by a dash. This plan of arrangement, while not diminishing essentially the convenience of reference, has the advantage of impressing upon the mind of the student the system of derivation and composition of words in the Ger- man language, and the great extent to which this method of " word-building" prevails in that language. T . In addition to the usual table of contents, we give also an index of the authors from whose writings selections are made, and a classified index of all the selections in the Reader.

(Auszug aus Lubke's "Kunstyesc/richte.") 1. Architektur. 1 Die Durchforschung Griechenlands mid die gewis- senhafte Darstellung seiner Monumente, 2 welche in der zweiten Halfte des vorigen Jahrhunderts durch Stuart und Revett erfolgte, war ein Ereigniss fiir die Geschichte der Architektur. Bis dahin hatte man die antiken Style nur in der groberen Umgestaltung kennen gelernt, wie sie von den Rdmern gehandhabt wurden. Erst jetzt erschloss sicli in Wahrheit die antike Architektur in ihrer unvergleichlichen einfachen Schonheit. Erst jetzt fing man an, ihr Gesetz 3 zu begreifen und ihre reinen harmonischen Linien nachzufiihlen. Aber es bedurfte eines Meisters von seltener Begabung, urn alle die herr- lichen neugewonnenen Anschauungen ins wirkliche Leben zu ubertragen. 4 Karl Fried/rich Schinkel (1781 - 1841), ein Kiinstler, wie die Architektur ihn seit Jahr- hunderten nicht mehr gesehen, war der Genius, der diese Mission vollbrachte. 5 Sein holier Sinn 6 erfasste die For- men der griechischen Architektur nicht als etwas Ver- einzeltes, sondern als lebensvolle Glieder eines Orga- nismus, dessen Gesetzmiissigkeit er zu ergriinden, und in dessen Geist er neue grossartige Schopfungen zu componiren wusste. Seine Hauptwerke, das Schau- spielhaus, das Museum, die neue Wache zu Berlin sind durch Bediirfnisse des modernen Lebens bedingt, aber im echten Geiste hellenischer Kunst 7 empfunden und hingestellt. Allein mit diesen Ergebnissen, so gross sie immer waren, begniigte sich der strebende Geist des Meisters nicht. Er durchdrang den ganzen Kreis bau- geschichtlicher Entwicklung, und indem er den klassi- schen Massstab 8 der antiken Kunst in ihrer einfachen Gesetzmiissigkeit und Schonheit anAlleslegte, erschloss 248 SeutfdjeS Sefcbudj, sich ihm zu geistvoller Verwendung das ewig Giiltige der verschiedenen Epochen. In den Entwiirfen zur Orianda 1 kam dies zum glanzendsten Ausdruck. Wah- rend aber diesem grossartigen Werke die Ansfiihrung versagt blieb, gab er in mehreren andern Schopfungen, namentlich in der Bauakademie zu Berlin die Grund- lage fur eine fortschreitende gedeihliche Entwicklung der Architektur, indem er zur gesunden Tradition des heimischen Backsteinbaues 2 zuriickgrifF und damit den Adel antiker Formbilclung und die Resultate der spate- ren Construktionssysteme verband. Die Traditionen Schinkel's haben nach dem Tode des grossen Meisters sich in demWirken seiner bedeutendsten Schiiler, Per- sius, Sailer, Stiller, Struck, zu denen im Privatbau noch Hitzig und Knoblauch kommen, lebenskraftig fortge- setzt, und besonders in der vollendeten Feinheit der Detailbildung und Ornamentation hat diese Schule Treffliclies geleistet. Minder consequent, minder geistvoll, aber in anderer Weise hochst folgenreich war die architektonische Tha- tigkeit, welche sich zu gleicher Zeit durch die seltene Kunstliebe Konig Ludwig's in Miinchen entfaltete. Kaum hat je ein anderer Regent so einsichtsvoll, so durchgreifend, so umfassend die Kunst gefordert wie dieser Monarch. Wenn die Mehrzahl anderer Fiirsten und Macene 3 die Kunst nur als Spielball ihrer Laune zur Befriedigung ihrer Privatgeliiste verwenden, so ge- biihrt Konig Ludwig der bleibende Ruhm, die monu- mentale, die volksthlimliche Bedeutung der Kunst rich- tig erfasst zu haben. Indem er sammtliche Kiinste bei der Herstellung grossartiger Aufgaben vereinigte, kniipfte er wieder zu lebensvoller Wirkung das Band 4 inniger Gemeinsamkeit, welches so lange zerrissen ge- wesen war. Die Architektur stand wieder im Mittel- punkt und die iibrigen Kiinste wetteiferten in jugend- 2>tc ^unft in Scutfdjfattb. 24<) licher Werdelust, 1 sich ihr dienend und helfend anzu schliessen. Fast verloren gegangene Zweige 2 der Kunst, wie die Freskotechnik und die Glasmalerei wurden wiederbelebt oder neu entdeckt. Andere, bislier kiim- merlich betriebene, wie die Bildnerei in Erz, 3 erhoben sich zu schwungvollem Betrieb, und eine neue Bliithe des tiefgesunkenen Kunsthandwerks schloss sich daran. Unter den Miinchener Architecten vertritt Leo von Klenze vorwiegend die Antike und die von ihr abge- leiteten Style. 4 Wenn gleich weit entfernt von der Hoheit, Reinheit und Genialitat Schinkel's (der indess 5 nicht ohne Einfluss auf ihn geblieben ist), wenn gleich mehr in conventionell iiberlieferter Weise componirend, hat er doch in der Glyptothek, 6 der Pinakothek, 7 der Ruhmeshalle 8 zu Miinchen und der Walhalla 9 zu Regens- burg Werke von imposanter Anlage und echt monumen- taler Gesammthaltung hingestellt. Ihm gegeniiber ist Friedrich von Gartner, als Vertre- ter der Romantik 10 zu nennen. Diese Richtung, die auch in unserer modernen Literatur eine so wichtisre Rolle 11 gespielt hat, wurcle durch die Befreiungskriege in Deutschland zuerst geweckt und erhielt in dem Auf- schwung des nation alen Gefiihles kraftige Forderang. Wie man auf literarischem Gebiet sich in die nationa- len Dichtungen des cleutschen Mittelalters vertiefte, wandte man in der Kunst sich mit Eifer dem Studium der grossen Monumente jener Epoche zu. Gartner be- vorzugte den romanischen Styl, den er in einer Reihe vonWerken, namentlich derLudwigskirche, der Biblio- thek,Universitat,derFeldherrnhalle u.A. 12 stattlich und bedeutsam auspragte. Auch die von Ziebland erbaute Basilika tra'gt den romanischen Formcharakter, wah- rend Ohhniillers Kirche in der Vorstadt Au mit Gliick einer elegant entwickelten Gothik sich anschliesst. Doch hat in Miinchen der romanische Styl im Wesent- L2 250 2>eutfrije3 ^efefcitdj, lichen die Oberhand behalten, und an manchen Orten, namentlich in Hannover, nicht minder eifrige Nach- ahmung gefunden. Dieselbe romantische Tendenz wurde sodann neuer- dings mit bedeutendem Erfolg in Wien aufgenommen, wo die imposanten Gebaude des Arsenals und die Alt- lerchenfelderkirche den romanischen, die Votivkirche den gothischen Styl befolgen. Ueberwiegend romani- schen Einfliissen hat sich zu Karlsruhe auch Eisenlohr, jedoch in besonders feiner, geistvoller Weise hingege- ben, wie die von ihm entworfenen Hochbauten der ba- dischen Eisenbahn bezeugen. Iliibsch dagegen, eben- falls in Karlsruhe thatig, hat in seinen zahlreichen Bauten, der Kunstschule, clem Theater, den Orangerie- gebauden daselbst, der Trinkhalle zu Baden, derKirche zu Bulach u. A. sich eine selbstandige 1 Weise gebil- det, in welcher die romantische Richtung durch eine etwas niichterne Reflexion modifizirt wird. In Dresden hat seit friiheren Zeiten die Renaissance fast ausschliessliche Geltung und ist in neueren Tagen durch den reichbegabten Sem/per in bedeutenden Wer- ken ausgepragt und an dem feiner entwickelten helle- nistischen Formgefiihl zu einer neuen Stufe fortgebil- det worden. Das Theater 2 und das Museum 3 daselbst sincl tiichtige Zeugnisse dieses Strebens. Auch in Stutt- gart hat die Renaissance-Architektur in mehreren Bau- ten von Zeins, namentlich der Villa des Kronprinzen, sich mit giinstigem Erfolg geltend gemacht. Andres ebendort von Egle.^ 2. Bildhauerei. 5 Den ersten Rang unter den deutschen Bildhauer- schulen der Gegenwart nimmt die Berliner ein. Wah- rend hier Friedrich Tieck in einer Reihe wiirdiger Werke die antike AufFassung festhielt, pragte sich die 2>ie ^u it ft in Scutft&lanb. 251 Richtung, welche Schadow eingeschlagen hatte, in ed- ler und massvoller Weise durch die lange, einflussreiche Wirksamkeit von Christian Ranch (1777-1857) zur Vollendung aus. Weniger durch den Reichthum an schopferischen Ideen, 1 als durch das feine Naturgefiihl, den gelauterten Sinn fiir einen wahrhaft plastischen Styl und eine uniibertreffliche Sorgfalt in der Durch- iiinrung nimmt dieser Meister eine wichtise Stelluiisc ein. Seine Bedeutung beruht aber nicht allein in sei- nen zahlreichen Werken, sondern audi in dem Einfluss, 2 den er auf einen grossen Kreis begabter Schiiler aus- iibte. Wahrend er in idealen Werken, wie in den Victorien 3 und manchen trefflichen Reliefdarstellungen, eine wahr- haft klassische Schonheit zur Erscheinung bringt, be- zeichnen seine Standbilder des Fiirsten Bliicher, der Generale Billow und Scharnhorst, die kolossale Reiter- statue Friedrichs des Grossen zu Berlin unci manche andre einen Hohepunkt in feiner Charakteristik und lebensvoller Pragnanz der Auffassung. Manche tiich- tige Schiiler sind aus seiner Werkstatt zu selbstandi- ger Bedeutung und freier Meisterschaft hervorgegan- gen und bilden in riistigem Schaffen, dem es an einer Menge bedeutender offentlicher Aufgaben nicht fehlt, den Kern 4 der heutigen Berliner Schule. Zu den tiich- tigsten der dortigen Meister zahlen Friedrich Drake, dessen Reliefs am Standbild Friedrich Wilhelms III. im Thiergarten bei Berlin voll naiver Anmuth sind; Sehievelbein, der besonders in der Reliefcomposition ei- nen Reichthum von Phantasie entfaltet ; Blaser, von dem die wirkungsvollste der Marmorgruppen auf der Schlossbriicke 5 herriihrt ; A. Fischer und in der Thier- bildnerei A. Kiss, Th. Kalicle und W. Woffi. Unter den jiingeren besonders der reichbegabte Reinhold Begas. 252 SentfdjcS ^efclntdj. An Vielseitigkeit der Begabung, Feinheit des Form- gefiihls und Tiefe der Empfindung nimmt unter den Bildhauern dieses Jahrhunderts unzweifelhaft Ernst Rietschel (1804-1861) eine der ersten Stellen ein. Aus der Schule Rauchs hat er die Richtung auf treue, cha- rakteristisclie Darstellung des Lebens und liebevolle Sorgfalt der Durchbildung erhalten, und sein Doppel- monument Schillers und Gothe's 1 in Weimar, no-ch rei- ner und gliicklicher aber sein Lessing in Braunschweig unci der filr Worms entworfene Luther, 2 sind sprechende Beispiele dieser Gattung. In der fiir die Friedenskirche bei Potsdam gearbeiteten Gruppe der Maria mit dem Leichnam Christi hat er ein Werk voll ergreifenden Ausdrucks und tiefster religioser Empfindung hinge- stellt, wahrend die zahlreichen Reliefdarstellungen fiir das Giebelfeld des Opernhauses zu Berlin, das Theater 3 und Museum zu Dresden ihn auf dem Gebiet antiker Idealstoffe in nicht minder wiirdevoller und bedeuten- der Weise reprasentiren. Zu Dresden ist soclann Ernst Hdlinel thatig, dessen schwungvolle Compositionen (Theater nnd Museum zu Dresden) sich meist in anti- ker Anschauungsweise bewegen, die aber auch in mo- numentalen Standbildern, wie in dem Beethoven zu Bonn, Kaiser Karl IV. zu Prag, und den fiir das Dres- dener Museum geschafFenen Statuen, namentlich dem herrlichen Rafael, Werke von feiner Charakteristik hin- gestellt hat. In Miinchen war der reichbegabte Litdwig Schwan- thaler (1802-1848) der Hauptvertreter einer mehr ro- mantischen Richtung, die der modernen Plastik ein neues Gebiet frischer Anschauungen erschloss. Mit fast unerschopflicher Phantasie begabt, hat dieser Mei- ster in seinem kurzen Leben eine Fiille umfangreicher Aufgaben gelost, indem er den meisten der unter Konig Ludwig entstandenen Gebaude ihren plastischen Sic £ it it ft in Scutfdjlanb. 253 Schmuck gab. Wiihrend diese sich durch fruchtbare Erfinclung und einen gliicklichen decorativen Sinn aus- zeichnen, vermochte cler Kiinstler, zu rastlosem Schaf- fen angetrieben und durch korperliche Hinfalligkeit gehemmt, nicht seinen selbstancligen monumentalen Schopfungen jene allseitige Durchbildung derForm zu geben, die eine Lebensbedingung plastischer Werke ist. Doch lasst sich auch in diesen Arbeiten eine grossar- tisre monumentale Auffassuns* nicht verkennen, wie na- mentlich das kolossale Standbild cler Bavaria 1 in Miin- chen beweist. Eine zahlreiche Schule hat sich aus cler Werkstatt dieses Meisters entwickelt. Sein Einfluss wurde neuerdings namentlich auch nach Wien ver- pflanzt, wo Fernkorn, ein Schiller Schwanthalers, meh- rere monumentale Arbeiten, besonders das Reiterbild des Erzherzogs Karl, ausgefiihrt hat. 3. Malerei. 2 In grossartiger Freiheit als einer cler tiefsinnigsten und gewaltigsten Meister cler cleutschen Kunst hat sich Peter v. Cornelius (1782-1867) entwickelt. Schon ehe er nach Rom kam, hatte er durch die Compositionen zu Gdthe's Faust unci zu den Nibelangen 3 in cler Wahl des Gegenstandes und in der Form cler Darstellung eine wahrhaft nationale Weise wieder angeschlagen und sich als treuerNachfolger jener echten cleutschen Kunst hingestellt, die so reich unci herrlich in Albrecht Diirer zur Erscheinung gekommen. Als er nun nach liinge- rem romischen Aufenthalte im Jahre 1820 nach Diissel- dorf als Direktor cler Akademie berufen wurde, und dann 1825 durch Konig Luclwig an die Spitze derMiin- chener Akademie gestellt und mit Ausfiihrung der be- deutendsten Auftrage betraut wurde, begann in Deutschland eine neue Aera 4 fur die Geschichte der 254 SeutfcfjeS Scfe&ud). Kunst. In den unifangreichen Fresken der Glyptothek 1 verherrlichte er die antike Gutter- und Heroenwelt 2 und schuf mit gewaltiger Hand ein Geschlecht von Gestal- ten, in denen alle Schonheit und Erhabenheit, aber audi alle Leidenschaften des menschlichen Herzens einen uberwaltigenden Ausdruck fanden. In den Loggien 3 der Pinakothek 4 schilderte er voll lebendiger Anmuth und Naivetat die Geschichte der christlichen Kunst in trefflicher architektonischer Gliederung und anmuthig geistvoller Anordnung. Sodann entwarf er in dem ausgedehnten Bilclercyclus der Ludwigskirche 5 eine ebenso tiefsinnig durchdachte, wie grossartig durchge- bildete Schilderung der christlichen Ideenkreise von der ErschafFung der Welt bis zum jtingsten Gericht, ein Werk, das in Gedankenkraft, Wiirde und unermess- lichem Reichthum ihn allein zu einem der ersten Mei- ster der christlichen Kunst machen wiirde. Dennoch war die schopferische Thatigkeit des Meisters noch nicht abgeschlossen. Nach dem Regierungsantritt Friedrich Wilhelms IV. erhielt er einen Ruf nach Berlin, urn die neu zu erbau- ende Konigsgruft rait Fresken 6 zu schmiicken, und be- gann nun schon in vorgerucktem Alter jenen gewalti- gen Gedankencyclus der Compositionen zum Campo santo, 7 in denen er wiederum mit ganz neuer Kraft die christliche Weltanschauung, die Erlosung von der Siinde durch Christi Leben und Leiden, das Fortwirken der Kirche auf Erden und das Ende aller Dinge, den Untergang des Fleisches und die Auferstehung zum ewigen Leben inWerken voll unverganglicher Jugend- frische, voll tiefsinnigerWeisheit, voll erhabener Schon- heit und erschutternder Gewalt des Ausdrucks dap stellte. Wenn bei Cornelius die Durchbildung der Form sich spater nicht immer auf der Hohe gehalten hat, welche er im G6ttersaale 8 der Glyptothek erreichte, 2>ie i^ « n ft in 3eutidjian&- 255 wenn man ihm niclit ohne Grand Harten und selbst Mangel der Zeichnung vorwerfen kann, wenn endlich das eigentliche Malen, die Herrschaft liber die Farbe ausserhalb seines Bereiches liegt, so sind das Mangel, die neben seinen positiven Verdiensten so leicht wiegen, dass sie dieselben niclit zu verringern im Stande sind. Unter Cornelias' Scbiilern ist nur einer za nennen, der dem idealen Styl ein neues selbstiindiges Geprage zu geben wusste, Wilhelm v. Kaulbach, geboren 1805 zu Arolsen, zuerst in Diisseldorf, dann in Miinchen unter Cornelius' Leitung gebildet. Der gliinzendste Zug in der Riclitung dieses Meisters ist seine satyrische Bega- bung, die er in den Compositionen zum Reineke Fuchs mit genialer Laune zur Geltung gebracht hat. Von den grossen symbolisch-historischen 1 Darstellungen, welche er fiir das Treppenhaus 2 des Neuen Museums zu Berlin entworfen hat, steht die Hunnenschlacht 3 an poe- tischem Gehalt, an lebensvoller Schonheit und einheit- licher Klarheit der Composition oben an. In den iibri- gen Bildern bat derMeister sich zu sebr dem Spiel sei- ner geistreichen Einfalle iiberlassen und dadurch die strenge Geschlossenheit gefahrdet, wie audi die Cha- rakteristik sich allmalig zu conventioneller Allgemein- heit abgeflacht hat. Von den librigen Miinchener Kiinstlern ist Genelli, 1803 zu Berlin geboren, der Vertreter einer strengen klassischen Richtung, die er besonders in Zeichnungen voll poetischer Kraft und oft hinreissender linearer Schonheit bewahrt hat. Dagegen huldigt Moritz von Schioindt, 1804 in Wien geboren, ebenfalls mehr durch geniale Zeichnungen als durch Gemalde hervorragend, einer romantischen Richtung, die voll edler Anmuth und entziickender Innigkeit acht deutschen Empfindens vor alien in den Compositionen nach dem Marchen von den sieben Raben hervortritt. 256 $cutfdje§ Sefe&ad)- ttnfoerfitatSsGittridjtmtgetK 1 2fa«aug au§ ber 9tebe Bet Stntrttt be§ 9?e!torat§ ber $i5mgltd>en 2 guebrtd)* 23ttf>eIm3*Untoerfitat 3 jit Berlin am 15.

The name SRjjcttt (Latin, Rhenos; Greek, 'P?>os) is of Keltic origin (§1), but it does not occur now in any Keltic dialect. The Old-German (§ 9) forms wera Erin, Rin; the M.-Ger. (§ 10) form was Rin. There is also a small river in Italy, which flows from the Apeninncs by Bologna into the Po, in the region which in ancient geography was Cis-alpine Gaul, that bore the (Latin) name of Reims (in Italian Reno). — 2. For the idiomatic use of prepositions, see § 258. The rea- son for the particular preposition which follows certain nouns, adjectives, and verbs is generally to be found in the radical meaning of the word itself. Thus, (Stolj is from the same radical verb as tic <3tc!je (= stilt), both being derived from the Old- German verb stelzan=to go on stilts, to rjo in a hiyh or haughty way. — 3. For the formation of nouns from adjectives, see § 57, 2, 1, and Lesson XXXVII., 4, 1.— 4. See § 44, Exc. In the Old-German le'bentig and Mid.-Ger. lebendec, the accent was on the first syllable; Opitz (§15) still accented tho word le'fcenbig. The word is formed from the present participle lebentv by adding :ig. Many other adjectives were thus formed from the present parti- ciple of verbs during fjrmer periods of the language. — 5.

Page 26. i. § 55, 1, Rem. 1. Xct Stopf (M.-G., Icopf; O.-G., copf, coph, choph, chopp, chuph, chupf) is derived from the Low-Latin coppa (whence Ital., coppa ; Sp. and Port., eopa ; Fr., coupe ; A. -Sax., copp, cuppa, cupp ; Eng., cup), which word coppa ( = cup) was from the Latin cuppa=^cask, tub. The definition cup was retained in German till the 13th century. Under the influence of the barbarous custom which prevailed in Germany during the early Middle Ages of using the skulls of enemies killed in battle and of martyred saints as drink- ing vessels, especially on festive occasions, the definition of skidl and then of head was applied to the word 5topf. By reference to the same custom the Lat. noun testa (=pitcher, cup) has received in the Romance languages the significa- tion of head (It., Sp., and Port., testa; ~Fr.,tete). From the same Latin word cuppa are derived the Sp. cubilete; ~Ex.,gobelet ; ~Erxg., goblet ; and the Ital. and Eng. cupola; Sp., cupula; Fr., coupole; Ger., ^uppel (so called from its re.-- semblance to an inverted cup). — 2. ^ie <2>tubc (M.-Ger., stobe; 0. -Ger. ,stapa; A.-Sa,x.,stofe [=stove,bath]; Eng., stove; Dutch, st oof ') is from a noun which appears in Low-Latin during the 8th century stuba [stufa, stupa] (whence It., stufa; Sp. and Port., estufa — stove; Fr., etuve— bathroom, stove) which original word (stuba) appears to have had for its fundamental idea a room that can be heated; this was the original definition of the New-English word stove. — 3. § 138. — 4. 3d) bltcb fetlt Itegett, idiomatic=/£ep£ in bed, or I did not get up. — 5. § 150, 2; I kept out of the way of my companions ; the German language has a large number of double nouns, or nouns which have similar significations, but which are used with the article in the singular as though forming but one noun, as: ber £>anbel unb $8cxfrt)X=the trade, commerce; tie 9lrt unb %Bci\c=thf way ; bct3 $ab 1Mb &\xt=possession, etc. Page 27. i. § 169, 2.-3. Xic Gctge (first appeared about A.D. 1200) is supposed by some lexicographers to be from the verb gcigen, which in some dia- lects means to move to and fro (said of swarms of flies in the air); from the same root is the Ital. giga (=a stringed instrument), and the 'Frenchgigue ( = a dance attended by singing).— 3. § 103, 3, Rem. 1.— 4. § 184, 2.-5. £>ctf(cu)= "set a table for the flies by themselves." — 6. 2Bte (c3) tl)r kfot)len (ttkir). — St- "The table is set; will your illustrious worship please order the flies to take their seats?"
