Text by Schubert: Das Heulen der Winde
Feyerliche Stille.

Die bretterne Kammer
Der Todten erbebt,
Wenn zwölfmahl der Hammer
Die Mitternacht hebt.

Rasch tanzen um Gräber
Und morsches Gebein
Wir luftigen Schweber
Den sausenden Rhein

Was winseln die Hunde
Beym schlafenden Herrn?
Sie wittern die Runde
Der Geister von fern
