Heinrich Heine - A Warning
Work rating: Low

You will print such books as these?
Then you`re lost, my friend, that`s certain.
If you wish for gold and honor,
Write more humbly—bend your knees!

Yes, you must have lost your senses,
Thus to speak before the people,
Thus to dare to speak of preachers
And of potentates and princes!

Friend, you`re lost, so it appears:
For the princes have long arms,
And the preachers have long tongues,
—And the masses have long ears!
