Auf seinen Nasen schreitet einher das Nasobēm, von seinem Kind begleitet. Es steht noch nicht im Brehm. Es sieht noch nicht im Meyer. Und auch im Brockhaus nicht. Es trat aus meiner Leyer zum ersten Mal ans Licht. Auf seinen Nasen schreitet (wie schon gesagt) seitdem, von seinem Kind begleitet, einher das Nasobēm.

Upon its noses strides All about the Nasobēm, Accompanied with its child. It's not yet found in Brehm's Lives of Animals. It's not yet found in Meyer's Lexicon, Nor is it in the Brockhaus Encyclopedia. It flowed out of my musings As first it came to light. Upon its noses strides (As said before) since then, Accompanied with its child, And goes the Nasobēm.
