Jacht
Language: Dutch (Nederlands)
Knap op! Elk ende een nu, springt wakker in de wegen; 't wachtwoord en de harop klinkt: nu den slag geslegen! 't Wild zit in de bosschen schuil, klauwen scherp, en tanden: vaart en vindt den vossenkuil, honden, rept uw' handen! Vangen gaat, en volgen, snel; terren, dat de turven speiten! Wilt, in 't jagersspel, dapper zijn en durven!
