to it and reproaches me --


for not doing so.


De hond jankt, zij praatDer Hund jault, sie spricht

it, sweet young girls cannot save --

Crept into his bed,

I satisfied the craving --


that had made him sick.


Ik kroop in zijn bed,Ich kroch in sein Bett,
en stilde het verlangen --und stillte die Begierde --
dat hem ziek maakte.die ihn krank machte.
