So quickly fared Sir Tannhauser,—<br />

I^is feet were bleeding and torn-<br />

Back to the Venusberg he came.<br />

Ere the earliest streak of morn.<br />

Dame Venus, awakened from her sleep,<br />

From her bed upsprang in haste.<br />

Already she hath with her arms so white<br />

Her darling spouse embraced.<br />

Forth from her nose outstreams the blood,<br />

The tears from her eyelids start;<br />

She moistens the face of her darling spouse<br />

With the tears and blood of her heart.<br />

The knight lay down upon her bed.<br />

And not a word he spake;<br />

Dame Venus to the kitchen went<br />

A bowl of broth to make.<br />
