Donnerstag (Thursday). In German, the text reads : "Der Tag an den mann wird gemahnt / Die Schulden zu bezahlen, / Kommt oft so schnell herbeigerant / Das mann erschrickt zumalen; / Wenn mann Just nicht bei Gelde ist, / Ach! da macht einem Jud und Christ. Wahrhaftig Donnerstäge." In English, the text reads : "The day on which one is reminded / To pay the debts, / It often sneaks up on one so quickly, / That one becomes the picture of shock. / When one doesn't have access to the money, / Oh! As does a Jew and a Christian."

In German, the text reads : "Du machst mit deinen Geld hienieden. / Ganz nach Gefallen Krieg und Frieden. / Zum Dank sind diese grosse Orden. / Dir allgemach zutheil geworden. / Zwar darf ich das Kreuz nicht leiden. / Doch golden nehm' ich's an mit Freuden. / Wie Meyer, Hirsch und Löwe schon. / Gold bringt zum Ruhm und hohe Ehre. / Hoch stehe ich auf goldne Heere. / Und hoff' Emancipation." In English, the text reads : "You put your money beneath you. / All of it after the beneficial war and peace. / Thank God these are the largest orders. / The majority became a part of it. / Even though I am not allowed to suffer the cross. / Still, golden I'll take it on with friends. / Like Meyer, Hirsch, and Löwe already. / Gold brings glory and high honors. / I stand up high on golden armies. / And hope for emancipation." Published Leipzig: Luis Rocca.
In the town square, one man holds up the Ten Commandments; another ducks under a prayer shawl. In German, the text reads : "Dieses hat euch Gott gegeben. / Wollt Ihr's rein verehren lieben, / Wird Euch Heilin diesem Leben. / Und Gottseligkeit einst drüben! / Laßt das Alte uns verfechten! / Nichts von Ehren nichts von Lieben, / Nichts von Freiheit nichts von Rechten; / Leichter fischt es sich im Trüben." In English, the text reads : "This was given to you all by God. / Do you all want to love and honor its purity, / It will heal you all in this life. / And God's blessing is over there! / Allow the old to advocate for us! / Nothing from honor, nothing from love, / Nothing from freedom, nothing from rights; / It is easier to fish in the fog."
