Lonely stand the pillars of the deserted temple, ivy growing on the unlocked gate. The sound of song and music has ceased, replaced by the howling of owls in the collapsed choir. All splendor and grandeur are gone, swept away by the long river of time, along with the bishop's ring and seal, ring and staff, all buried in the eternal open grave of the past. Nothing remains constant, all things rush away, the misery and the bliss of love granted; our striving, our hoping, our pondering, all important for only a moment. What we lovingly embrace in spring fades away in autumn, and the greatest masterpiece of creation sinks into the dust of obsolescence.
A.E. Hermann (1810)
