Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of a Good-for-Nothing Once more the wheel of my father´s mill was humming and gurgling right merrily, the snow was dripping busily from the roof and the sparrows twittering and bustling back and forth as I sat upon the threshold and rubbed the sleep from my eyes; I loved to be in the warm sunshine. Then my father stepped out of the house; since daybreak he had been a-rummaging in the mill, his nightcap askew on his head. Said he to me: ´You good-for-nothing! There you sit sunning yourself, lolling and stretching your limbs to exhaustion and leaving me to do all the work alone. I can feed you here no longer. Spring´s at the gate, go out into the world and earn your own bread for once in your life.´ ´Well,´ said I, ´if I am a good-for-nothing, so be it; I will set out and make my fortune.´ Indeed I was glad to go, for I had lately been thinking of setting off on my travels; I could hear how the yellow-hammer, who all autumn and winter had piped sadly at our window - ´Farmer, hire me, Farmer, hire me´ - now in the sweet springtime had proudly changed his tune to a gay ´Farmer can keep his work!´ So I went indoors and took down my fiddle, which I played well enough.
