Contents
Overture : Das schlechte Wetter -- Es lacht der Mai -- Die Flamme lodre durch den Rauch -- Könnt ihr so verwegen handeln -- Auf des Lagers hohem Walle -- Wer Opfer heut' zu bringen scheut -- Verteilt euch, wackre Männer, hier -- Diese dumpfen Pfaffenchristen -- Kommt mit Zacken und mit Gabeln -- So weit gebracht -- Hilf, ach hilf mir, Kriegsgeselle -- Schreckliche, verhexte Leiber -- Die Flamme reinigt sich vom Rauch.
