TYROLEAN ELEGIES

IX.
Finally we came to Brixen
With no further worry,
And they gave Dedera, for me
Receipt in a hurry.
And to Czech, this piece of paper
They returned because
Here, the double-headed eagle
Holds me in his claws.
Gendarmes and a district ruler
In this barren area,
They gave me for guardian angels
In this Siberia.
