FALK.
Nej, ikke ord, men gerning, bare gerning!
Vorherres arbejdsplan jeg vender om; –
seks ugedage spildtes med at gabe;
min verdensbygning ligger endnu tom; –
imorgen, søndag – hej, da vil jeg skabe!
FALK.
Words, words, no more, but action, only action!
I will reverse the plan of the Creation;--
Six days were lavish’d in that occupation;
My world’s still lying void and desolate,
Hurrah, to-morrow, Sunday--I’ll create!
