+
+
+
+DE MUIS.
+
+
+Hoe dikwijls heeft al in het leven
+  Zelfs de allerkleinste omstandigheid
+Een huis vol onrust ons gegeven
+  En schrik en angst in 't hart verspreid!
+Niet altijd is 't een hemelwonder
+  Dat ons verschrikt door zijn natuur
+Maar kleinigheên zijn 't in 't bizonder,
+  Die kwelling baren te ieder uur.
+Geen oorlog, noch rumoer in staten,
+  Geen heerschzucht van Napoleon,
+Geen kuiperij van diplomaten,
+  Of wat men bij 'n congres verzon.
+Geen tegenspoed bij groote werken;
+  Geen willekeur van 't Pruisisch hof;
+Geen Godsdienst-kwestie's in de kerken,
+  Gaf in dit boek den zanger stof;
+En wat men mooglijk ook moog' gissen,
+  Ik bied u hier geen huiskrakeel
+Of misgevallen erfenissen,
+  Geschetst in 't treurigste tafereel;
+'k Laat gaarne 't huisbewind de vrouwen,
+  Hoe stout zich manlief ook verzet;
+'k Laat alle staten rustig sjouwen,
+  Om 't al of niet volmaakt budget;
+'k Laat ieder vorst naar wensch regeeren;
+  Ik moei mij met geen politiek;
+Ik wek geen onrust voor de beeren
+  En maak geen andre menschen ziek;
+Ik laat geen metallieken dalen;
+  Ik zet geen dieven achter 't slot;
+Ik wil geen moordnaarsleven malen
+  Of noem het vrijersleven zot;
+Ik mor niet om belastingwetten
+  Betaal gedwee mijn zuurverdiende geld
+Laat alle bakers daag'lijks koffie zetten
+  En geloof altijd wat ons de krant vertelt.
+'k Bezing geen schandlijke bankroeten,
+  En allerminst een maagdenroof,
+Geen Oostersch vraagstuk, ook geen knoeten,
+  Want voor mishandlen blijf ik doof;
+'k Wil met mijn lied geen schrikbeeld wekken,
+  Noch onrust stichten bij den raad;
+'k Noem geen Ministers kamergekken,
+  Of wek geen tweedracht, nijd of haat,
+'k Beweeg mij niet in 's lands historie;
+  'k Spreek van geen Kenau Hasselaar;
+'k Laat aan van Speijk zijn buskruit-glorie,
+  Praat niet van Jan van Schaffelaar;
+Ik wijd geen letter aan de slaven,
+  Zelfs niet aan die men te onzent vindt;
+Ik roem geen fijne satans-gaven;
+  'k Bega geen moord op vrouw of kind;
+'k Laat ieder vrij den Eiffeltoor'n bestijgen;
+  Voor bommenwerpers vraag 'k geen strop;
+Van 't krijgsgeweld zal 'k ook maar zwijgen
+  Mij windt zoo'n waanzin zelfs niet op
+'k Laat wereldvrede droombeeld blijven
+  Ik gun 't geweld het hoogste woord
+Want 'k wil slechts van een muisje schrijven,
+  Hoe dat de nachtrust heeft gestoord
+Van 't edelste paar echtelingen
+  Dat ooit de huwelijkstempel zag;
+En 't eenig loon voor al mijn zingen,
+Zij, dat me om 't feit eens hartelijk lach'!
+
+
+
+
+I.
+
+
+Vriend Sparrebeen ging strijk en zet
+Des avonds kwart voor tien naar bed,
+En, wat hem groot pleizier dan deed,
+Zijn vrouw was altijd ook gereed.
+Hij sliep steeds aan den rechterkant,
+En zij dus aan de linkerhand,
+En duurde 't zoo ook jaren voort,
+Nooit werd hun zoete rust verstoord;
+Als hij zijn Eva had gekust,
+Zei zij: "Nacht Spar, slaap nu gerust
+En strek je beentjes, lieve guit,
+Maar recht toe tot den morgen uit",
+En verder werd, na 't kort gebed,
+Door d'een op d'ander niet gelet.
+Maar, in een slapeloozen nacht
+Terwijl de vrouw aan 't huiswerk dacht,
+Daar hoort ze plotseling gedruisch;
+Ze luistert, zoekt--een grijze muis
+Heeft zich, o gruwel! onversaagd
+In 't vreedzaam slaapvertrek gewaagd.
+En Eva beefde en gilde luid:
+"O Vader Spar! spring haastig uit
+Het bed, want, Heer wat bitter kruis!
+Er is een ondier in ons huis."--
+Vriend Spar keek angstig in het rond,
+Tot hij de muis zag op den grond,
+Die, keken beiden nog zoo scheef,
+Stil aan de vloermat knabblen bleef.
+
+
+
+
+II.
+
+
+Maar Spar dacht: Knaap, je zult er aan!
+En trok zijn broek en kousen aan;
+Wie had ooit Snarretje voorspeld
+Dat hij, zoo op zijn rust gesteld,
+Nog in het middernachtlijk uur
+Zou opstaan voor een avontuur?--
+Hij greep een stok en sloeg in 't rond,
+Maar sloeg, waar zich geen muis bevond.
+Hij sprong en stapte heen en weêr,
+Maar miste 't raken keer op keer.
+En Eva lag, met bangen blik,
+Te staren, en kreeg schrik op schrik;
+Zij riep maar: "Sparretje! sla raak,
+Opdat de muis mij niet genaak!"--
+En was 't een oogenblikje stil,
+Dra klonk weêr vreeslijk Eva's gil:
+Vriend Spar geraakte gansch in vuur
+En sloeg op tafel, stoel en muur.
+Maar eindelijk sprong de rappe muis,
+--Misschien toch was 't wel bij abuis
+Op Eva's hoofd, en zoo op 't bed.
+Wat Eva gilde! Met één zet
+Dook zij, van vreeze bijna gek,
+Met hoofd en al beneden 't dek,
+Maar stak, daar haar het dek bedroog,
+De bloote beenen ver omhoog;
+En Spar, die nu gansch woedend is,
+Springt toe en slaat, maar altijd mis.
+
+
+
+
+III.
+
+
+'t Was stil--en 't bleef een poosje stil;
+Men hoorde niet meer slag of gil,
+En Sparrebeen zei: "Eva, kind!
+De muis is weg, uw rust begint."
+Zij werkt zich uit de dekens, maar
+Vol angst nog, lispt ze: "och, is 't waar?
+Och, Sparretje, ik dank u wel.
+Wat werkt zoo'n beest op mijn gestel!
+Nu kom ik er eens even uit,
+Om u te danken, lieve guit!"--
+Maar 't muisje, nog al bij de hand,
+Keek juist van onder 't ledikant,
+En Eva nauwlijks op den grond,
+Sprong met haar dikke voetjes rond.
+Zij schreeuwde luid: "Daar is de muis:
+Jaag Sparlief! 't beest toch buitenshuis."--
+Fluks boog de man zich op den grond,
+Of hij de snoode muis ook vond,
+Sloeg woedend om zich, keer op keer;
+Maar zie, de muis ontsnapte weêr,
+En zuchtend klaagde 't echtlijk paar:
+"Wij vangen 't dier nog in geen jaar;
+Wat ons nog overkomen zal
+Bij zulk een schrikklijk ongeval?"
+
+
+
+
+IV.
+
+
+Wat nu gedaan in 't nachtlijk uur?
+Hier was een goede raad wel duur;
+Liet zich de muis ook niet meer zien,
+Toch bracht zij angst aan de echtelien.
+Vrouw Eva's moed was lang gedoofd
+En Spar, hij krabde zich het hoofd;
+Men keek elkaâr verlegen aan
+En durfde niet ter rust te gaan.
+Niet zonder reden ook, want ach!
+Daar kwam weêr 't beestje voor den dag
+En 't lijden ving op nieuw weêr aan.
+Doch Spar zei: "Vrouw, blijf gij maar staan;
+'k Weet nu al hoe ik 't hebben moet:
+Ik vang het ondier in mijn hoed."--
+Hij greep den hoed, ging stil en zacht
+Met sprakeloozen mond ter jacht;
+Maar 't muisje, even rustig stil,
+Ziet dra wat Sparrebeen nu wil,
+En hoe zich onze vriend ook weer',
+Het fopt den sukkel keer op keer.
+Het loerde op de dikke vrouw,
+Als of het haar verjagen wou;
+Maar Eva, door 't gevaar nu leep,
+Zei: "Wacht eens, Monster, 'k vat de kneep";
+En nam van achter 't ledikant
+Een groote parapluie ter hand,
+Die zij heldhaftig opensloeg,
+Terwijl haar man op 't muisje joeg.
+
+
+
+
+V.
+
+
+De muis was weg: men wist niet waar,
+Spar sloeg de handen in elkaâr,
+Hij zuchtte diep, de arme man
+Want hij begreep er niets meer van,
+Ook Eva sprak geen enkel woord;
+De muis werd gansch niet meer gehoord,
+Maar Spar zei: "Top! ik weet het al,
+Nu loopt het ondier in den val
+Zie, 'k neem mijn slaapmuts, beste meid!
+En 'k leg die stil en met beleid
+Hier midden in de kamer neêr,
+En 'k vang de muis, ja bij mijn eer!
+Laat gij u van uw man maar raân
+En blijf maar stil wat achter aan!"
+--De wollen muts werd neêrgelegd,
+Schoon Eva zei: "'t Komt nooit terecht."--
+Daar zat vriend Spar nu met zijn vrouw
+Bijna een half uur in de kou,
+Soms dommelde Eva zachtjes in,
+Maar dat was niet naar Sparbeens zin;
+Hij gaf haar somtijds zulk een stoot,
+Dat Eva achterover schoot.
+Maar zie, daar kwam de muis weêr aan,
+Nu liep ze voort, dan bleef ze staan,
+Dan weder keek ze eens deftig rond,
+Of zij ook ergens iemand vond:
+Zij zag de muts, bekeek die stil,
+Toen kroop ze er in; maar Eva's gil
+Had bijna heel den boêl verbruid,
+En dan was 't met de vangst weêr uit!--
+Leest verder wat gebeuren zal,
+Met 't muisje in zijn wollen val.
+
+
+
+
+VI.
+
+
+"Ik heb de muis!"--zoo juichte Spar,
+En Eva was gansch in de war
+Daar zij maar niet begrijpen kon,
+Hoe Sparrebeen zoo iets verzon.
+Vol eerbied staarde zij hem aan
+Maar, bleef op verren afstand staan.
+En d'edle jager sprak vol zwier:
+"Hier, Vrouw! hier hebt gij 't monsterdier!"
+Maar 't vrouwtje zei: "Ik dankje wel,
+'k Heb waarlijk nu al kippenvel."
+"Kom", sprak nu de onversaagde man,
+"Nu zal ik toonen wat ik kan.--
+Gij onruststoker in mijn huis,"
+Zoo sprak hij woedend tot de muis,
+"'k Zal toonen dat ik winnaar ben,
+En niets dan uw verdelging ken.
+Ik heb je vast verschrikklijk beest!
+En zeg je nu, je bent geweest!--
+Lach, Eva, lach dan toch met mij,
+Nu slapen wij veer stil en vrij,
+En gaan wij samen weêr ter rust,
+Maar eerst door u goê nacht gekust.
+Kom, schielijk mij nu achterna,
+Dan ziet gij 's ondiers eind weldra,
+Want, was haar loosheid ook al groot,
+'k Verwon, en 't looze dier gaat dood!"
+
+
+
+
+VII.
+
+
+"Houd, Eva, gij u nu eens stil,"
+Sprak Spar, "en hoor eens wat ik wil!
+Het Beest, dat zoo onz' rust verstoort,
+Zij oogenblikkelijk vermoord:
+Ik stort, wat ik zoo pas verzon,
+De muis nu in de waterton;
+Daar vindt ze dra een wissen dood
+En wij zijn dan weêr uit den nood."--
+"Maar, man, hoe zult ge dat toch doen?
+Hoe kunt ge zulk een denkbeeld voên!
+Ach, Sparretje, geloof mij vrij,
+De muis is slim en vlug er bij,
+En zoo ontkomt ze u eindlijk nog,"
+"Hoor nu zoo'n wijf! Wat praat je toch?
+Ik zeg je zult nu eens wat zien:
+Ik zal de muis een lesje biên,
+En heeft het onze rust gekost,
+Wij worden thans van 't leed verlost!
+Sterf nu, verschrikkelijke muis!
+Den marteldood hier in mijn huis."
+En Eva sprak met 't hoofd op zij':
+"Och, Sparrebeen, heb medelij'!
+Wie weet hoe 't eens met ons nog gaat,
+Laat 't beestje loopen, vrij op straat."
+Maar Spar, die niet meer luistren kon,
+Schudt 't arme muisje in de ton.
+"Verga, verteer, o monsterdier!
+Uw dood geeft mij het grootst pleizier!"
+
+
+
+
+VIII.
+
+
+Zoo als gezegd, werd ook gedaan,
+Vrouw Eva was er meê begaan,
+Maar Spar, tot 't uiterste gebracht,
+Stapt moedig met zijn kostbre vracht
+Tot voor de ton, en roept met klem:
+"Hier is het beest, vrouw, weg met hem!"
+Spar had de slaapmuts in de hand
+En liep van d'een' naar d'anderen kant,
+Voldoening was er in zijn blik,
+In één woord: Spar was in zijn schik
+Dat hij zoo flink den kampstrijd won.
+Hij trad behoedzaam naar de ton,
+Hij nam het deksel, keek eens om,
+Als dacht hij, die komt nooit weêrom,
+Pof! daar lag, midden in het vat,
+De muis te spartlen in het nat.
+Maar Spar, kreeg nog al niet zijn zin:
+Dat vat daar was een gaatje in,
+En toen de muis dat gaatjen zag.
+Toen kwam zij daadlijk voor den dag,
+En Eva sprong wel vijf voet hoog,
+Nu haar de muis op nieuw bedroog:
+Zij greep vol angst de paraplu,
+En gilde: "Spar! daar heb je 't nu,
+Al hang jij met geheel je lijf
+Daar op die ton een uur of vijf,
+De muis is eer jij 't denken kon,
+Pardoes gesprongen uit de ton!"
+Spar zag het--keek bedremmeld rond
+Of hij ook ergens 't ondier vond,
+Hij keek verlegen langs zijn neus,
+En zei alleen: "'t is schandaleus."
+
+
+
+
+IX.
+
+
+De muis sprong vroolijk heen en weêr,
+En Sparrebeen sloeg keer op keer;
+Maar wat onze arme vriend ook deed,
+Het muisje lacht wat om zijn leed.
+De dikke Eva schreeuwde luid:
+"Och, Sparretje! och help me er uit!
+Och, roep in 's Heeren naam de buurt,
+Want zie hoe 't beest toch naar mij gluurt,
+Ik sterf nog, Sparretje, kom gauw!
+Verlos dan toch je lieve vrouw!
+Maar voor je verder voort zult gaan,
+Geef me eerst wat Hoffmans druppels aan!"
+Spar deed het, maar de muis, hoe valsch!
+Sprong op, pakte Eva in haar hals,
+En hing er als een bloedhond aan.
+'t Scheen nu met Eva wel gedaan;
+Zij schreeuwde luidkeels: "Sparrebeen,
+De muis loopt met je wijfje heen!"
+Maar Sparretje zag 't groot gevaar,
+En was tot redding daadlijk klaar;
+Hij zag zijn vrouw vol angst en schrik,
+En was vol moed op 't oogenblik;
+Hij schoof, tot 't vangen van zijn buit,
+Omzichtig, langzaam aan vooruit
+En, schreeuwde Eva moord en brand,
+Spar greep de muis met sterke hand.
+
+
+
+
+X.
+
+
+"Ik heb de muis! o vreeslijk dier
+Nu geldt uw leven ook geen zier!
+Kom, vrouwtje lief! nu opgepast,
+Ik hou haar in mijn vingers vast."--
+De goede vrouw begreep zijn doel
+En klom heel handig op een stoel,
+En in de waschkom kwam een plas,
+Waar de Oceaan een kind bij was.
+"Zoo hoort het", zeide Sparrebeen,
+"Jij bent mijn vrouw en jij alleen,
+Nu raakt mijn vijand toch er aan;
+Hij moet tot stof en asch vergaan."--
+De muis keek angstig in het rond
+Of zij niet iets ter redding vond;
+Maar Sparretje, tot wraak gestemd,
+Hield haar maar stevig vastgeklemd,
+'t Verdelgingsmiddel is gereed,
+En Eva, bijna nat van 't zweet,
+Zegt: "Spar! ik heb mijn best gedaan,
+Stuur vlug nu 't ondier naar de maan."--
+"Verdrink!"--zoo gilde Sparrebeen,
+"Verdrink, verga!"--doch zie met een
+Beet 't dier den moordnaar in de hand,
+De man verloor bijna 't verstand;
+"Help!" schreeuwde hij, "help spoedig, wijf!
+Nu valt het ondier mij te lijf!"--
+Nochtans de muis bekomt haar straf;
+Spar schudt haar in de waschkom af.
+
+
+
+
+XI.
+
+
+Toen 't muisje zich in vrijheid vond
+Zwom 't dapper in de waschkom rond,
+En Spar keek met zijn lieve vrouw
+Of 't ondier nu verdrinken zou.
+Het was een klucht om aan te zien
+Hoe daar die eerzame echteliên,
+Met angst en moordzucht in hun blik,
+Verbeidden 't vreeslijk oogenblik.--
+'t Scheen dat de muis haar kracht verloor;
+Zoo bracht ze mooi ons paar van 't spoor;
+Ze sprong in 't eigen oogenblik
+De waschkom uit, tot beider schrik.--
+Nu was aan Spar geen houden meer;
+Hij vloekte luid en sloeg al weêr,
+Maar wat of wie hij raken mocht,
+Het muisje had zich vrij gekocht.--
+'t Was vreeselijk om aan te zien,
+Die diep verslagen brave liên.
+Zij vonden, tot hun bitter kruis,
+Geen zelfvoldoening met de muis.
+"Hou vast,"--zoo gilde Spar verbaasd,
+Maar door zijn overdreven haast,
+Viel tafel, stoel en hij meteen,
+Met alles over Eva heen.
+Daar lag de boel en Spar zei: "Vrouw!
+De muis is waarlijk ons te gauw;
+Ik geef de brui van al die pret,
+Vang jij de muis,--ik ga naar bed."
+
+
+
+
+XII.
+
+
+Zoo had--wie heeft het ooit gehoord?
+Een muis de zoete rust gestoord
+Van 't vreedzaamst echtpaar dezer aard!
+Aurora stookte reeds haar haard,
+En zag met deernis op de vrouw
+Die bijna trilde van de koû.
+De muis was vrij--keek om en rond,
+Of zij nog hinderpalen vond.
+Ging naar haar schuilplaats--piepte luid,
+En stak toen beî haar pootjes uit.
+"Gij zoekt mijn dood, vervloekt gespuis!
+Maar ik bleef vrij"!--weg was de muis.

+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg

+
+Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without
+widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations

+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up

+DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
+state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate

+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
+donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate

+
+
+DE MUIS.
+
+
+Hoe dikwijls heeft al in het leven
+  Zelfs de allerkleinste omstandigheid
+Een huis vol onrust ons gegeven
+  En schrik en angst in 't hart verspreid!
+Niet altijd is 't een hemelwonder
+  Dat ons verschrikt door zijn natuur
+Maar kleinighe�n zijn 't in 't bizonder,
+  Die kwelling baren te ieder uur.
+Geen oorlog, noch rumoer in staten,
+  Geen heerschzucht van Napoleon,
+Geen kuiperij van diplomaten,
+  Of wat men bij 'n congres verzon.
+Geen tegenspoed bij groote werken;
+  Geen willekeur van 't Pruisisch hof;
+Geen Godsdienst-kwestie's in de kerken,
+  Gaf in dit boek den zanger stof;
+En wat men mooglijk ook moog' gissen,
+  Ik bied u hier geen huiskrakeel
+Of misgevallen erfenissen,
+  Geschetst in 't treurigste tafereel;
+'k Laat gaarne 't huisbewind de vrouwen,
+  Hoe stout zich manlief ook verzet;
+'k Laat alle staten rustig sjouwen,
+  Om 't al of niet volmaakt budget;
+'k Laat ieder vorst naar wensch regeeren;
+  Ik moei mij met geen politiek;
+Ik wek geen onrust voor de beeren
+  En maak geen andre menschen ziek;
+Ik laat geen metallieken dalen;
+  Ik zet geen dieven achter 't slot;
+Ik wil geen moordnaarsleven malen
+  Of noem het vrijersleven zot;
+Ik mor niet om belastingwetten
+  Betaal gedwee mijn zuurverdiende geld
+Laat alle bakers daag'lijks koffie zetten
+  En geloof altijd wat ons de krant vertelt.
+'k Bezing geen schandlijke bankroeten,
+  En allerminst een maagdenroof,
+Geen Oostersch vraagstuk, ook geen knoeten,
+  Want voor mishandlen blijf ik doof;
+'k Wil met mijn lied geen schrikbeeld wekken,
+  Noch onrust stichten bij den raad;
+'k Noem geen Ministers kamergekken,
+  Of wek geen tweedracht, nijd of haat,
+'k Beweeg mij niet in 's lands historie;
+  'k Spreek van geen Kenau Hasselaar;
+'k Laat aan van Speijk zijn buskruit-glorie,
+  Praat niet van Jan van Schaffelaar;
+Ik wijd geen letter aan de slaven,
+  Zelfs niet aan die men te onzent vindt;
+Ik roem geen fijne satans-gaven;
+  'k Bega geen moord op vrouw of kind;
+'k Laat ieder vrij den Eiffeltoor'n bestijgen;
+  Voor bommenwerpers vraag 'k geen strop;
+Van 't krijgsgeweld zal 'k ook maar zwijgen
+  Mij windt zoo'n waanzin zelfs niet op
+'k Laat wereldvrede droombeeld blijven
+  Ik gun 't geweld het hoogste woord
+Want 'k wil slechts van een muisje schrijven,
+  Hoe dat de nachtrust heeft gestoord
+Van 't edelste paar echtelingen
+  Dat ooit de huwelijkstempel zag;
+En 't eenig loon voor al mijn zingen,
+Zij, dat me om 't feit eens hartelijk lach'!
+
+
+
+
+I.
+
+
+Vriend Sparrebeen ging strijk en zet
+Des avonds kwart voor tien naar bed,
+En, wat hem groot pleizier dan deed,
+Zijn vrouw was altijd ook gereed.
+Hij sliep steeds aan den rechterkant,
+En zij dus aan de linkerhand,
+En duurde 't zoo ook jaren voort,
+Nooit werd hun zoete rust verstoord;
+Als hij zijn Eva had gekust,
+Zei zij: "Nacht Spar, slaap nu gerust
+En strek je beentjes, lieve guit,
+Maar recht toe tot den morgen uit",
+En verder werd, na 't kort gebed,
+Door d'een op d'ander niet gelet.
+Maar, in een slapeloozen nacht
+Terwijl de vrouw aan 't huiswerk dacht,
+Daar hoort ze plotseling gedruisch;
+Ze luistert, zoekt--een grijze muis
+Heeft zich, o gruwel! onversaagd
+In 't vreedzaam slaapvertrek gewaagd.
+En Eva beefde en gilde luid:
+"O Vader Spar! spring haastig uit
+Het bed, want, Heer wat bitter kruis!
+Er is een ondier in ons huis."--
+Vriend Spar keek angstig in het rond,
+Tot hij de muis zag op den grond,
+Die, keken beiden nog zoo scheef,
+Stil aan de vloermat knabblen bleef.
+
+
+
+
+II.
+
+
+Maar Spar dacht: Knaap, je zult er aan!
+En trok zijn broek en kousen aan;
+Wie had ooit Snarretje voorspeld
+Dat hij, zoo op zijn rust gesteld,
+Nog in het middernachtlijk uur
+Zou opstaan voor een avontuur?--
+Hij greep een stok en sloeg in 't rond,
+Maar sloeg, waar zich geen muis bevond.
+Hij sprong en stapte heen en we�r,
+Maar miste 't raken keer op keer.
+En Eva lag, met bangen blik,
+Te staren, en kreeg schrik op schrik;
+Zij riep maar: "Sparretje! sla raak,
+Opdat de muis mij niet genaak!"--
+En was 't een oogenblikje stil,
+Dra klonk we�r vreeslijk Eva's gil:
+Vriend Spar geraakte gansch in vuur
+En sloeg op tafel, stoel en muur.
+Maar eindelijk sprong de rappe muis,
+--Misschien toch was 't wel bij abuis
+Op Eva's hoofd, en zoo op 't bed.
+Wat Eva gilde! Met ��n zet
+Dook zij, van vreeze bijna gek,
+Met hoofd en al beneden 't dek,
+Maar stak, daar haar het dek bedroog,
+De bloote beenen ver omhoog;
+En Spar, die nu gansch woedend is,
+Springt toe en slaat, maar altijd mis.
+
+
+
+
+III.
+
+
+'t Was stil--en 't bleef een poosje stil;
+Men hoorde niet meer slag of gil,
+En Sparrebeen zei: "Eva, kind!
+De muis is weg, uw rust begint."
+Zij werkt zich uit de dekens, maar
+Vol angst nog, lispt ze: "och, is 't waar?
+Och, Sparretje, ik dank u wel.
+Wat werkt zoo'n beest op mijn gestel!
+Nu kom ik er eens even uit,
+Om u te danken, lieve guit!"--
+Maar 't muisje, nog al bij de hand,
+Keek juist van onder 't ledikant,
+En Eva nauwlijks op den grond,
+Sprong met haar dikke voetjes rond.
+Zij schreeuwde luid: "Daar is de muis:
+Jaag Sparlief! 't beest toch buitenshuis."--
+Fluks boog de man zich op den grond,
+Of hij de snoode muis ook vond,
+Sloeg woedend om zich, keer op keer;
+Maar zie, de muis ontsnapte we�r,
+En zuchtend klaagde 't echtlijk paar:
+"Wij vangen 't dier nog in geen jaar;
+Wat ons nog overkomen zal
+Bij zulk een schrikklijk ongeval?"
+
+
+
+
+IV.
+
+
+Wat nu gedaan in 't nachtlijk uur?
+Hier was een goede raad wel duur;
+Liet zich de muis ook niet meer zien,
+Toch bracht zij angst aan de echtelien.
+Vrouw Eva's moed was lang gedoofd
+En Spar, hij krabde zich het hoofd;
+Men keek elka�r verlegen aan
+En durfde niet ter rust te gaan.
+Niet zonder reden ook, want ach!
+Daar kwam we�r 't beestje voor den dag
+En 't lijden ving op nieuw we�r aan.
+Doch Spar zei: "Vrouw, blijf gij maar staan;
+'k Weet nu al hoe ik 't hebben moet:
+Ik vang het ondier in mijn hoed."--
+Hij greep den hoed, ging stil en zacht
+Met sprakeloozen mond ter jacht;
+Maar 't muisje, even rustig stil,
+Ziet dra wat Sparrebeen nu wil,
+En hoe zich onze vriend ook weer',
+Het fopt den sukkel keer op keer.
+Het loerde op de dikke vrouw,
+Als of het haar verjagen wou;
+Maar Eva, door 't gevaar nu leep,
+Zei: "Wacht eens, Monster, 'k vat de kneep";
+En nam van achter 't ledikant
+Een groote parapluie ter hand,
+Die zij heldhaftig opensloeg,
+Terwijl haar man op 't muisje joeg.
+
+
+
+
+V.
+
+
+De muis was weg: men wist niet waar,
+Spar sloeg de handen in elka�r,
+Hij zuchtte diep, de arme man
+Want hij begreep er niets meer van,
+Ook Eva sprak geen enkel woord;
+De muis werd gansch niet meer gehoord,
+Maar Spar zei: "Top! ik weet het al,
+Nu loopt het ondier in den val
+Zie, 'k neem mijn slaapmuts, beste meid!
+En 'k leg die stil en met beleid
+Hier midden in de kamer ne�r,
+En 'k vang de muis, ja bij mijn eer!
+Laat gij u van uw man maar ra�n
+En blijf maar stil wat achter aan!"
+--De wollen muts werd ne�rgelegd,
+Schoon Eva zei: "'t Komt nooit terecht."--
+Daar zat vriend Spar nu met zijn vrouw
+Bijna een half uur in de kou,
+Soms dommelde Eva zachtjes in,
+Maar dat was niet naar Sparbeens zin;
+Hij gaf haar somtijds zulk een stoot,
+Dat Eva achterover schoot.
+Maar zie, daar kwam de muis we�r aan,
+Nu liep ze voort, dan bleef ze staan,
+Dan weder keek ze eens deftig rond,
+Of zij ook ergens iemand vond:
+Zij zag de muts, bekeek die stil,
+Toen kroop ze er in; maar Eva's gil
+Had bijna heel den bo�l verbruid,
+En dan was 't met de vangst we�r uit!--
+Leest verder wat gebeuren zal,
+Met 't muisje in zijn wollen val.
+
+
+
+
+VI.
+
+
+"Ik heb de muis!"--zoo juichte Spar,
+En Eva was gansch in de war
+Daar zij maar niet begrijpen kon,
+Hoe Sparrebeen zoo iets verzon.
+Vol eerbied staarde zij hem aan
+Maar, bleef op verren afstand staan.
+En d'edle jager sprak vol zwier:
+"Hier, Vrouw! hier hebt gij 't monsterdier!"
+Maar 't vrouwtje zei: "Ik dankje wel,
+'k Heb waarlijk nu al kippenvel."
+"Kom", sprak nu de onversaagde man,
+"Nu zal ik toonen wat ik kan.--
+"Gij onruststoker in mijn huis,"
+Zoo sprak hij woedend tot de muis,
+"'k Zal toonen dat ik winnaar ben,
+En niets dan uw verdelging ken.
+Ik heb je vast verschrikklijk beest!
+En zeg je nu, je bent geweest!--
+Lach, Eva, lach dan toch met mij,
+Nu slapen wij veer stil en vrij,
+En gaan wij samen we�r ter rust,
+Maar eerst door u go� nacht gekust.
+Kom, schielijk mij nu achterna,
+Dan ziet gij 's ondiers eind weldra,
+Want, was haar loosheid ook al groot,
+'k Verwon, en 't looze dier gaat dood!"
+
+
+
+
+VII.
+
+
+"Houd, Eva, gij u nu eens stil,"
+Sprak Spar, "en hoor eens wat ik wil!
+Het Beest, dat zoo onz' rust verstoort,
+Zij oogenblikkelijk vermoord:
+Ik stort, wat ik zoo pas verzon,
+De muis nu in de waterton;
+Daar vindt ze dra een wissen dood
+En wij zijn dan we�r uit den nood."--
+"Maar, man, hoe zult ge dat toch doen?
+Hoe kunt ge zulk een denkbeeld vo�n!
+Ach, Sparretje, geloof mij vrij,
+De muis is slim en vlug er bij,
+En zoo ontkomt ze u eindlijk nog,"
+"Hoor nu zoo'n wijf! Wat praat je toch?
+Ik zeg je zult nu eens wat zien:
+Ik zal de muis een lesje bi�n,
+En heeft het onze rust gekost,
+Wij worden thans van 't leed verlost!
+Sterf nu, verschrikkelijke muis!
+Den marteldood hier in mijn huis."
+En Eva sprak met 't hoofd op zij':
+"Och, Sparrebeen, heb medelij'!
+Wie weet hoe 't eens met ons nog gaat,
+Laat 't beestje loopen, vrij op straat."
+Maar Spar, die niet meer luistren kon,
+Schudt 't arme muisje in de ton.
+"Verga, verteer, o monsterdier!
+Uw dood geeft mij het grootst pleizier!"
+
+
+
+
+VIII.
+
+
+Zoo als gezegd, werd ook gedaan,
+Vrouw Eva was er me� begaan,
+Maar Spar, tot 't uiterste gebracht,
+Stapt moedig met zijn kostbre vracht
+Tot voor de ton, en roept met klem:
+"Hier is het beest, vrouw, weg met hem!"
+Spar had de slaapmuts in de hand
+En liep van d'een' naar d'anderen kant,
+Voldoening was er in zijn blik,
+In ��n woord: Spar was in zijn schik
+Dat hij zoo flink den kampstrijd won.
+Hij trad behoedzaam naar de ton,
+Hij nam het deksel, keek eens om,
+Als dacht hij, die komt nooit we�rom,
+Pof! daar lag, midden in het vat,
+De muis te spartlen in het nat.
+Maar Spar, kreeg nog al niet zijn zin:
+Dat vat daar was een gaatje in,
+En toen de muis dat gaatjen zag.
+Toen kwam zij daadlijk voor den dag,
+En Eva sprong wel vijf voet hoog,
+Nu haar de muis op nieuw bedroog:
+Zij greep vol angst de paraplu,
+En gilde: "Spar! daar heb je 't nu,
+Al hang jij met geheel je lijf
+Daar op die ton een uur of vijf,
+De muis is eer jij 't denken kon,
+Pardoes gesprongen uit de ton!"
+Spar zag het--keek bedremmeld rond
+Of hij ook ergens 't ondier vond,
+Hij keek verlegen langs zijn neus,
+En zei alleen: "'t is schandaleus."
+
+
+
+
+IX.
+
+
+De muis sprong vroolijk heen en we�r,
+En Sparrebeen sloeg keer op keer;
+Maar wat onze arme vriend ook deed,
+Het muisje lacht wat om zijn leed.
+De dikke Eva schreeuwde luid:
+"Och, Sparretje! och help me er uit!
+Och, roep in 's Heeren naam de buurt,
+Want zie hoe 't beest toch naar mij gluurt,
+Ik sterf nog, Sparretje, kom gauw!
+Verlos dan toch je lieve vrouw!
+Maar voor je verder voort zult gaan,
+Geef me eerst wat Hoffmans druppels aan!"
+Spar deed het, maar de muis, hoe valsch!
+Sprong op, pakte Eva in haar hals,
+En hing er als een bloedhond aan.
+'t Scheen nu met Eva wel gedaan;
+Zij schreeuwde luidkeels: "Sparrebeen,
+De muis loopt met je wijfje heen!"
+Maar Sparretje zag 't groot gevaar,
+En was tot redding daadlijk klaar;
+Hij zag zijn vrouw vol angst en schrik,
+En was vol moed op 't oogenblik;
+Hij schoof, tot 't vangen van zijn buit,
+Omzichtig, langzaam aan vooruit
+En, schreeuwde Eva moord en brand,
+Spar greep de muis met sterke hand.

+"Ik heb de muis! o vreeslijk dier
+Nu geldt uw leven ook geen zier!
+Kom, vrouwtje lief! nu opgepast,
+Ik hou haar in mijn vingers vast."--
+De goede vrouw begreep zijn doel
+En klom heel handig op een stoel,
+En in de waschkom kwam een plas,
+Waar de Oceaan een kind bij was.
+"Zoo hoort het", zeide Sparrebeen,
+"Jij bent mijn vrouw en jij alleen,
+Nu raakt mijn vijand toch er aan;
+Hij moet tot stof en asch vergaan."--
+De muis keek angstig in het rond
+Of zij niet iets ter redding vond;
+Maar Sparretje, tot wraak gestemd,
+Hield haar maar stevig vastgeklemd,
+'t Verdelgingsmiddel is gereed,
+En Eva, bijna nat van 't zweet,
+Zegt: "Spar! ik heb mijn best gedaan,
+Stuur vlug nu 't ondier naar de maan."--
+"Verdrink!"--zoo gilde Sparrebeen,
+"Verdrink, verga!"--doch zie met een
+Beet 't dier den moordnaar in de hand,
+De man verloor bijna 't verstand;
+"Help!" schreeuwde hij, "help spoedig, wijf!
+Nu valt het ondier mij te lijf!"--
+Nochtans de muis bekomt haar straf;
+Spar schudt haar in de waschkom af.
+
+
+
+
+XI.
+
+
+Toen 't muisje zich in vrijheid vond
+Zwom 't dapper in de waschkom rond,
+En Spar keek met zijn lieve vrouw
+Of 't ondier nu verdrinken zou.
+Het was een klucht om aan te zien
+Hoe daar die eerzame echteli�n,
+Met angst en moordzucht in hun blik,
+Verbeidden 't vreeslijk oogenblik.--
+'t Scheen dat de muis haar kracht verloor;
+Zoo bracht ze mooi ons paar van 't spoor;
+Ze sprong in 't eigen oogenblik
+De waschkom uit, tot beider schrik.--
+Nu was aan Spar geen houden meer;
+Hij vloekte luid en sloeg al we�r,
+Maar wat of wie hij raken mocht,
+Het muisje had zich vrij gekocht.--
+'t Was vreeselijk om aan te zien,
+Die diep verslagen brave li�n.
+Zij vonden, tot hun bitter kruis,
+Geen zelfvoldoening met de muis.
+"Hou vast,"--zoo gilde Spar verbaasd,
+Maar door zijn overdreven haast,
+Viel tafel, stoel en hij meteen,
+Met alles over Eva heen.
+Daar lag de boel en Spar zei: "Vrouw!
+De muis is waarlijk ons te gauw;
+Ik geef de brui van al die pret,
+Vang jij de muis,--ik ga naar bed."
+
+
+
+
+XII.
+
+
+Zoo had--wie heeft het ooit gehoord?
+Een muis de zoete rust gestoord
+Van 't vreedzaamst echtpaar dezer aard!
+Aurora stookte reeds haar haard,
+En zag met deernis op de vrouw
+Die bijna trilde van de ko�.
+De muis was vrij--keek om en rond,
+Of zij nog hinderpalen vond.
+Ging naar haar schuilplaats--piepte luid,
+En stak toen be� haar pootjes uit.
+"Gij zoekt mijn dood, vervloekt gespuis!
+Maar ik bleef vrij"!--weg was de muis.

+collection are in the public domain in the United States.  If an
+individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
+located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from
+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed.  Of course, we hope that you will support the Project
+Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by
+freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of
+this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with
+the work.  You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by
+keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others.
+
+1.D.  The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
+what you can do with this work.  Copyright laws in most countries are in

+the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement
+before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or

+Gutenberg-tm work.  The Foundation makes no representations concerning
+the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United
+States.
+
+1.E.  Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
+
+1.E.1.  The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate
+access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently

+Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed,
+copied or distributed:

+This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with
+almost no restrictions whatsoever.  You may copy it, give it away or
+re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included
+with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org
+
+1.E.2.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
+and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
+or charges.  If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the
+work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1
+through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the

+1.E.9.
+
+1.E.3.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
+with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
+must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional
+terms imposed by the copyright holder.  Additional terms will be linked

+permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.

+License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
+work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.

+1.E.5.  Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
+electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
+prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
+active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm License.
+
+1.E.6.  You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
+compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any
+word processing or hypertext form.  However, if you provide access to or
+distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format other than
+"Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official version
+posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site (www.gutenberg.org),
+you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a
+copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon
+request, of the work in its original "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other
+form.  Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.

+- You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from
+     the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
+     you already use to calculate your applicable taxes.  The fee is
+     owed to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he
+     has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the
+     Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation.  Royalty payments
+     must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you
+     prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax

+     sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the
+     address specified in Section 4, "Information about donations to
+     the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation."
+
+- You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
+     you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
+     does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+     License.  You must require such a user to return or
+     destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
+     and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
+     Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+- You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any
+     money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
+     electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days
+     of receipt of the work.
+
+- You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
+     distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+1.E.9.  If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work or group of works on different terms than are set
+forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing from
+both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and Michael
+Hart, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark.  Contact the
+Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.
+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3.  YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
+TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3.  LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from.  If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation.  The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund.  If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund.  If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4.  Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
+
+1.F.5.  Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6.  INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+http://pglaf.org/fundraising.  Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+
+The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S.
+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations.  Its business office is located at
+809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email
+business@pglaf.org.  Email contact links and up to date contact
+information can be found at the Foundation's web site and official
+page at http://pglaf.org
+
+For additional contact information:
+     Dr. Gregory B. Newby
+     Chief Executive and Director
+     gbnewby@pglaf.org
+
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+1.A. By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg&#8482;
+electronic work, you indicate that you have read, understand, agree to

+1.B. &#8220;Project Gutenberg&#8221; is a registered trademark. It may only be

+agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. There are a few
+things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg&#8482; electronic works
+even without complying with the full terms of this agreement. See
+paragraph 1.C below. There are a lot of things you can do with Project
+Gutenberg&#8482; electronic works if you follow the terms of this

+1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation (&#8220;the

+States. If an individual work is unprotected by copyright law in the
+United States and you are located in the United States, we do not
+claim a right to prevent you from copying, distributing, performing,
+displaying or creating derivative works based on the work as long as
+all references to Project Gutenberg are removed. Of course, we hope

+free access to electronic works by freely sharing Project Gutenberg&#8482;
+works in compliance with the terms of this agreement for keeping the
+Project Gutenberg&#8482; name associated with the work. You can easily

+
+<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
+Project Gutenberg&#8482; is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
+computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
+exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
+from people in all walks of life.
+</div>
+
+<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg&#8482;&#8217;s
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg&#8482; collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg&#8482; and future
+generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
+Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org.

+Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+</div>
+
+<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service. The Foundation&#8217;s EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by
+U.S. federal laws and your state&#8217;s laws.
+</div>
+
+<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
+The Foundation&#8217;s business office is located at 809 North 1500 West,
+Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up

+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+</div>
+
+<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
+Project Gutenberg&#8482; depends upon and cannot survive without widespread
+public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+</div>
+
+<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
+DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state
+visit <a href="https://www.gutenberg.org/donate/">www.gutenberg.org/donate</a>.
+</div>
+
+<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+</div>
+
+<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+</div>
+
+<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
+Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
+donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate

+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg&#8482; electronic works
+</div>
+
+<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
+Gutenberg&#8482; concept of a library of electronic works that could be
+freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
+distributed Project Gutenberg&#8482; eBooks with only a loose network of
+volunteer support.
+</div>
+
+<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
+Project Gutenberg&#8482; eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
+the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
+necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
+edition.
+</div>
+
+<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
+Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
+facility: <a href="https://www.gutenberg.org">www.gutenberg.org</a>.
+</div>
+
+<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
+This website includes information about Project Gutenberg&#8482;,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no
+one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation
+(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without
+permission and without paying copyright royalties.  Special rules,
+set forth in the General Terms of Use part of this license, apply to
+copying and distributing Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works to
+protect the PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm concept and trademark.  Project
+Gutenberg is a registered trademark, and may not be used if you
+charge for the eBooks, unless you receive specific permission.  If you
+do not charge anything for copies of this eBook, complying with the
+rules is very easy.  You may use this eBook for nearly any purpose
+such as creation of derivative works, reports, performances and
+research.  They may be modified and printed and given away--you may do
+practically ANYTHING with public domain eBooks.  Redistribution is

+
+THE FULL PROJECT GUTENBERG LICENSE
+PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU DISTRIBUTE OR USE THIS WORK
+
+To protect the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting the free
+distribution of electronic works, by using or distributing this work
+(or any other work associated in any way with the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg"), you agree to comply with all the terms of the Full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License (available with this file or online at

+
+
+Section 1.  General Terms of Use and Redistributing Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic works
+
+1.A.  By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work, you indicate that you have read, understand, agree to
+and accept all the terms of this license and intellectual property
+(trademark/copyright) agreement.  If you do not agree to abide by all
+the terms of this agreement, you must cease using and return or destroy
+all copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in your possession.
+If you paid a fee for obtaining a copy of or access to a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work and you do not agree to be bound by the
+terms of this agreement, you may obtain a refund from the person or
+entity to whom you paid the fee as set forth in paragraph 1.E.8.
+
+1.B.  "Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark.  It may only be
+used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
+agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement.  There are a few
+things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
+even without complying with the full terms of this agreement.  See
+paragraph 1.C below.  There are a lot of things you can do with Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this agreement
+and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.  See paragraph 1.E below.
+
+1.C.  The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation"
+or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works.  Nearly all the individual works in the
+collection are in the public domain in the United States.  If an
+individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
+located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from
+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed.  Of course, we hope that you will support the Project
+Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by
+freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of
+this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with
+the work.  You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by
+keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others.
+
+1.D.  The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
+what you can do with this work.  Copyright laws in most countries are in
+a constant state of change.  If you are outside the United States, check
+the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement
+before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or
+creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project
+Gutenberg-tm work.  The Foundation makes no representations concerning
+the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United
+States.
+
+1.E.  Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
+
+1.E.1.  The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate
+access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently
+whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work on which the

+Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed,
+copied or distributed:
+
+This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with
+almost no restrictions whatsoever.  You may copy it, give it away or
+re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included
+with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org
+
+1.E.2.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
+and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
+or charges.  If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the
+work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1
+through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the
+Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or
+1.E.9.
+
+1.E.3.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
+with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
+must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional
+terms imposed by the copyright holder.  Additional terms will be linked
+to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works posted with the
+permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.
+
+1.E.4.  Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
+work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
+
+1.E.5.  Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
+electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
+prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
+active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm License.
+
+1.E.6.  You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
+compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any
+word processing or hypertext form.  However, if you provide access to or
+distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format other than
+"Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official version
+posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site (www.gutenberg.org),
+you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a
+copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon
+request, of the work in its original "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other
+form.  Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.
+
+1.E.7.  Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying,
+performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg-tm works

+that
+
+- You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from
+     the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
+     you already use to calculate your applicable taxes.  The fee is
+     owed to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he
+     has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the
+     Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation.  Royalty payments
+     must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you
+     prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax
+     returns.  Royalty payments should be clearly marked as such and
+     sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the
+     address specified in Section 4, "Information about donations to
+     the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation."
+
+- You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
+     you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
+     does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+     License.  You must require such a user to return or
+     destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
+     and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
+     Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+- You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any
+     money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
+     electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days
+     of receipt of the work.
+
+- You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
+     distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+1.E.9.  If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work or group of works on different terms than are set
+forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing from
+both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and Michael
+Hart, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark.  Contact the
+Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.
+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3.  YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
+TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3.  LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from.  If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation.  The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund.  If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund.  If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4.  Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
+
+1.F.5.  Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6.  INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+http://pglaf.org/fundraising.  Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+
+The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S.
+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations.  Its business office is located at
+809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email
+business@pglaf.org.  Email contact links and up to date contact
+information can be found at the Foundation's web site and official
+page at http://pglaf.org
+
+For additional contact information:
+     Dr. Gregory B. Newby
+     Chief Executive and Director
+     gbnewby@pglaf.org
+
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+
+
+DE MUIS.
+
+
+Hoe dikwijls heeft al in het leven
+  Zelfs de allerkleinste omstandigheid
+Een huis vol onrust ons gegeven
+  En schrik en angst in 't hart verspreid!
+Niet altijd is 't een hemelwonder
+  Dat ons verschrikt door zijn natuur
+Maar kleinighe�n zijn 't in 't bizonder,
+  Die kwelling baren te ieder uur.
+Geen oorlog, noch rumoer in staten,
+  Geen heerschzucht van Napoleon,
+Geen kuiperij van diplomaten,
+  Of wat men bij 'n congres verzon.
+Geen tegenspoed bij groote werken;
+  Geen willekeur van 't Pruisisch hof;
+Geen Godsdienst-kwestie's in de kerken,
+  Gaf in dit boek den zanger stof;
+En wat men mooglijk ook moog' gissen,
+  Ik bied u hier geen huiskrakeel
+Of misgevallen erfenissen,
+  Geschetst in 't treurigste tafereel;
+'k Laat gaarne 't huisbewind de vrouwen,
+  Hoe stout zich manlief ook verzet;
+'k Laat alle staten rustig sjouwen,
+  Om 't al of niet volmaakt budget;
+'k Laat ieder vorst naar wensch regeeren;
+  Ik moei mij met geen politiek;
+Ik wek geen onrust voor de beeren
+  En maak geen andre menschen ziek;
+Ik laat geen metallieken dalen;
+  Ik zet geen dieven achter 't slot;
+Ik wil geen moordnaarsleven malen
+  Of noem het vrijersleven zot;
+Ik mor niet om belastingwetten
+  Betaal gedwee mijn zuurverdiende geld
+Laat alle bakers daag'lijks koffie zetten
+  En geloof altijd wat ons de krant vertelt.
+'k Bezing geen schandlijke bankroeten,
+  En allerminst een maagdenroof,
+Geen Oostersch vraagstuk, ook geen knoeten,
+  Want voor mishandlen blijf ik doof;
+'k Wil met mijn lied geen schrikbeeld wekken,
+  Noch onrust stichten bij den raad;
+'k Noem geen Ministers kamergekken,
+  Of wek geen tweedracht, nijd of haat,
+'k Beweeg mij niet in 's lands historie;
+  'k Spreek van geen Kenau Hasselaar;
+'k Laat aan van Speijk zijn buskruit-glorie,
+  Praat niet van Jan van Schaffelaar;
+Ik wijd geen letter aan de slaven,
+  Zelfs niet aan die men te onzent vindt;
+Ik roem geen fijne satans-gaven;
+  'k Bega geen moord op vrouw of kind;
+'k Laat ieder vrij den Eiffeltoor'n bestijgen;
+  Voor bommenwerpers vraag 'k geen strop;
+Van 't krijgsgeweld zal 'k ook maar zwijgen
+  Mij windt zoo'n waanzin zelfs niet op
+'k Laat wereldvrede droombeeld blijven
+  Ik gun 't geweld het hoogste woord
+Want 'k wil slechts van een muisje schrijven,
+  Hoe dat de nachtrust heeft gestoord
+Van 't edelste paar echtelingen
+  Dat ooit de huwelijkstempel zag;
+En 't eenig loon voor al mijn zingen,
+Zij, dat me om 't feit eens hartelijk lach'!
+
+
+
+
+I.
+
+
+Vriend Sparrebeen ging strijk en zet
+Des avonds kwart voor tien naar bed,
+En, wat hem groot pleizier dan deed,
+Zijn vrouw was altijd ook gereed.
+Hij sliep steeds aan den rechterkant,
+En zij dus aan de linkerhand,
+En duurde 't zoo ook jaren voort,
+Nooit werd hun zoete rust verstoord;
+Als hij zijn Eva had gekust,
+Zei zij: "Nacht Spar, slaap nu gerust
+En strek je beentjes, lieve guit,
+Maar recht toe tot den morgen uit",
+En verder werd, na 't kort gebed,
+Door d'een op d'ander niet gelet.
+Maar, in een slapeloozen nacht
+Terwijl de vrouw aan 't huiswerk dacht,
+Daar hoort ze plotseling gedruisch;
+Ze luistert, zoekt--een grijze muis
+Heeft zich, o gruwel! onversaagd
+In 't vreedzaam slaapvertrek gewaagd.
+En Eva beefde en gilde luid:
+"O Vader Spar! spring haastig uit
+Het bed, want, Heer wat bitter kruis!
+Er is een ondier in ons huis."--
+Vriend Spar keek angstig in het rond,
+Tot hij de muis zag op den grond,
+Die, keken beiden nog zoo scheef,
+Stil aan de vloermat knabblen bleef.
+
+
+
+
+II.
+
+
+Maar Spar dacht: Knaap, je zult er aan!
+En trok zijn broek en kousen aan;
+Wie had ooit Snarretje voorspeld
+Dat hij, zoo op zijn rust gesteld,
+Nog in het middernachtlijk uur
+Zou opstaan voor een avontuur?--
+Hij greep een stok en sloeg in 't rond,
+Maar sloeg, waar zich geen muis bevond.
+Hij sprong en stapte heen en we�r,
+Maar miste 't raken keer op keer.
+En Eva lag, met bangen blik,
+Te staren, en kreeg schrik op schrik;
+Zij riep maar: "Sparretje! sla raak,
+Opdat de muis mij niet genaak!"--
+En was 't een oogenblikje stil,
+Dra klonk we�r vreeslijk Eva's gil:
+Vriend Spar geraakte gansch in vuur
+En sloeg op tafel, stoel en muur.
+Maar eindelijk sprong de rappe muis,
+--Misschien toch was 't wel bij abuis
+Op Eva's hoofd, en zoo op 't bed.
+Wat Eva gilde! Met ��n zet
+Dook zij, van vreeze bijna gek,
+Met hoofd en al beneden 't dek,
+Maar stak, daar haar het dek bedroog,
+De bloote beenen ver omhoog;
+En Spar, die nu gansch woedend is,
+Springt toe en slaat, maar altijd mis.
+
+
+
+
+III.
+
+
+'t Was stil--en 't bleef een poosje stil;
+Men hoorde niet meer slag of gil,
+En Sparrebeen zei: "Eva, kind!
+De muis is weg, uw rust begint."
+Zij werkt zich uit de dekens, maar
+Vol angst nog, lispt ze: "och, is 't waar?
+Och, Sparretje, ik dank u wel.
+Wat werkt zoo'n beest op mijn gestel!
+Nu kom ik er eens even uit,
+Om u te danken, lieve guit!"--
+Maar 't muisje, nog al bij de hand,
+Keek juist van onder 't ledikant,
+En Eva nauwlijks op den grond,
+Sprong met haar dikke voetjes rond.
+Zij schreeuwde luid: "Daar is de muis:
+Jaag Sparlief! 't beest toch buitenshuis."--
+Fluks boog de man zich op den grond,
+Of hij de snoode muis ook vond,
+Sloeg woedend om zich, keer op keer;
+Maar zie, de muis ontsnapte we�r,
+En zuchtend klaagde 't echtlijk paar:
+"Wij vangen 't dier nog in geen jaar;
+Wat ons nog overkomen zal
+Bij zulk een schrikklijk ongeval?"
+
+
+
+
+IV.
+
+
+Wat nu gedaan in 't nachtlijk uur?
+Hier was een goede raad wel duur;
+Liet zich de muis ook niet meer zien,
+Toch bracht zij angst aan de echtelien.
+Vrouw Eva's moed was lang gedoofd
+En Spar, hij krabde zich het hoofd;
+Men keek elka�r verlegen aan
+En durfde niet ter rust te gaan.
+Niet zonder reden ook, want ach!
+Daar kwam we�r 't beestje voor den dag
+En 't lijden ving op nieuw we�r aan.
+Doch Spar zei: "Vrouw, blijf gij maar staan;
+'k Weet nu al hoe ik 't hebben moet:
+Ik vang het ondier in mijn hoed."--
+Hij greep den hoed, ging stil en zacht
+Met sprakeloozen mond ter jacht;
+Maar 't muisje, even rustig stil,
+Ziet dra wat Sparrebeen nu wil,
+En hoe zich onze vriend ook weer',
+Het fopt den sukkel keer op keer.
+Het loerde op de dikke vrouw,
+Als of het haar verjagen wou;
+Maar Eva, door 't gevaar nu leep,
+Zei: "Wacht eens, Monster, 'k vat de kneep";
+En nam van achter 't ledikant
+Een groote parapluie ter hand,
+Die zij heldhaftig opensloeg,
+Terwijl haar man op 't muisje joeg.
+
+
+
+
+V.
+
+
+De muis was weg: men wist niet waar,
+Spar sloeg de handen in elka�r,
+Hij zuchtte diep, de arme man
+Want hij begreep er niets meer van,
+Ook Eva sprak geen enkel woord;
+De muis werd gansch niet meer gehoord,
+Maar Spar zei: "Top! ik weet het al,
+Nu loopt het ondier in den val
+Zie, 'k neem mijn slaapmuts, beste meid!
+En 'k leg die stil en met beleid
+Hier midden in de kamer ne�r,
+En 'k vang de muis, ja bij mijn eer!
+Laat gij u van uw man maar ra�n
+En blijf maar stil wat achter aan!"
+--De wollen muts werd ne�rgelegd,
+Schoon Eva zei: "'t Komt nooit terecht."--
+Daar zat vriend Spar nu met zijn vrouw
+Bijna een half uur in de kou,
+Soms dommelde Eva zachtjes in,
+Maar dat was niet naar Sparbeens zin;
+Hij gaf haar somtijds zulk een stoot,
+Dat Eva achterover schoot.
+Maar zie, daar kwam de muis we�r aan,
+Nu liep ze voort, dan bleef ze staan,
+Dan weder keek ze eens deftig rond,
+Of zij ook ergens iemand vond:
+Zij zag de muts, bekeek die stil,
+Toen kroop ze er in; maar Eva's gil
+Had bijna heel den bo�l verbruid,
+En dan was 't met de vangst we�r uit!--
+Leest verder wat gebeuren zal,
+Met 't muisje in zijn wollen val.
+
+
+
+
+VI.
+
+
+"Ik heb de muis!"--zoo juichte Spar,
+En Eva was gansch in de war
+Daar zij maar niet begrijpen kon,
+Hoe Sparrebeen zoo iets verzon.
+Vol eerbied staarde zij hem aan
+Maar, bleef op verren afstand staan.
+En d'edle jager sprak vol zwier:
+"Hier, Vrouw! hier hebt gij 't monsterdier!"
+Maar 't vrouwtje zei: "Ik dankje wel,
+'k Heb waarlijk nu al kippenvel."
+"Kom", sprak nu de onversaagde man,
+"Nu zal ik toonen wat ik kan.--
+"Gij onruststoker in mijn huis,"
+Zoo sprak hij woedend tot de muis,
+"'k Zal toonen dat ik winnaar ben,
+En niets dan uw verdelging ken.
+Ik heb je vast verschrikklijk beest!
+En zeg je nu, je bent geweest!--
+Lach, Eva, lach dan toch met mij,
+Nu slapen wij veer stil en vrij,
+En gaan wij samen we�r ter rust,
+Maar eerst door u go� nacht gekust.
+Kom, schielijk mij nu achterna,
+Dan ziet gij 's ondiers eind weldra,
+Want, was haar loosheid ook al groot,
+'k Verwon, en 't looze dier gaat dood!"
+
+
+
+
+VII.
+
+
+"Houd, Eva, gij u nu eens stil,"
+Sprak Spar, "en hoor eens wat ik wil!
+Het Beest, dat zoo onz' rust verstoort,
+Zij oogenblikkelijk vermoord:
+Ik stort, wat ik zoo pas verzon,
+De muis nu in de waterton;
+Daar vindt ze dra een wissen dood
+En wij zijn dan we�r uit den nood."--
+"Maar, man, hoe zult ge dat toch doen?
+Hoe kunt ge zulk een denkbeeld vo�n!
+Ach, Sparretje, geloof mij vrij,
+De muis is slim en vlug er bij,
+En zoo ontkomt ze u eindlijk nog,"
+"Hoor nu zoo'n wijf! Wat praat je toch?
+Ik zeg je zult nu eens wat zien:
+Ik zal de muis een lesje bi�n,
+En heeft het onze rust gekost,
+Wij worden thans van 't leed verlost!
+Sterf nu, verschrikkelijke muis!
+Den marteldood hier in mijn huis."
+En Eva sprak met 't hoofd op zij':
+"Och, Sparrebeen, heb medelij'!
+Wie weet hoe 't eens met ons nog gaat,
+Laat 't beestje loopen, vrij op straat."
+Maar Spar, die niet meer luistren kon,
+Schudt 't arme muisje in de ton.
+"Verga, verteer, o monsterdier!
+Uw dood geeft mij het grootst pleizier!"
+
+
+
+
+VIII.
+
+
+Zoo als gezegd, werd ook gedaan,
+Vrouw Eva was er me� begaan,
+Maar Spar, tot 't uiterste gebracht,
+Stapt moedig met zijn kostbre vracht
+Tot voor de ton, en roept met klem:
+"Hier is het beest, vrouw, weg met hem!"
+Spar had de slaapmuts in de hand
+En liep van d'een' naar d'anderen kant,
+Voldoening was er in zijn blik,
+In ��n woord: Spar was in zijn schik
+Dat hij zoo flink den kampstrijd won.
+Hij trad behoedzaam naar de ton,
+Hij nam het deksel, keek eens om,
+Als dacht hij, die komt nooit we�rom,
+Pof! daar lag, midden in het vat,
+De muis te spartlen in het nat.
+Maar Spar, kreeg nog al niet zijn zin:
+Dat vat daar was een gaatje in,
+En toen de muis dat gaatjen zag.
+Toen kwam zij daadlijk voor den dag,
+En Eva sprong wel vijf voet hoog,
+Nu haar de muis op nieuw bedroog:
+Zij greep vol angst de paraplu,
+En gilde: "Spar! daar heb je 't nu,
+Al hang jij met geheel je lijf
+Daar op die ton een uur of vijf,
+De muis is eer jij 't denken kon,
+Pardoes gesprongen uit de ton!"
+Spar zag het--keek bedremmeld rond
+Of hij ook ergens 't ondier vond,
+Hij keek verlegen langs zijn neus,
+En zei alleen: "'t is schandaleus."
+
+
+
+
+IX.
+
+
+De muis sprong vroolijk heen en we�r,
+En Sparrebeen sloeg keer op keer;
+Maar wat onze arme vriend ook deed,
+Het muisje lacht wat om zijn leed.
+De dikke Eva schreeuwde luid:
+"Och, Sparretje! och help me er uit!
+Och, roep in 's Heeren naam de buurt,
+Want zie hoe 't beest toch naar mij gluurt,
+Ik sterf nog, Sparretje, kom gauw!
+Verlos dan toch je lieve vrouw!
+Maar voor je verder voort zult gaan,
+Geef me eerst wat Hoffmans druppels aan!"
+Spar deed het, maar de muis, hoe valsch!
+Sprong op, pakte Eva in haar hals,
+En hing er als een bloedhond aan.
+'t Scheen nu met Eva wel gedaan;
+Zij schreeuwde luidkeels: "Sparrebeen,
+De muis loopt met je wijfje heen!"
+Maar Sparretje zag 't groot gevaar,
+En was tot redding daadlijk klaar;
+Hij zag zijn vrouw vol angst en schrik,
+En was vol moed op 't oogenblik;
+Hij schoof, tot 't vangen van zijn buit,
+Omzichtig, langzaam aan vooruit
+En, schreeuwde Eva moord en brand,
+Spar greep de muis met sterke hand.
+
+
+
+
+X.
+
+
+"Ik heb de muis! o vreeslijk dier
+Nu geldt uw leven ook geen zier!
+Kom, vrouwtje lief! nu opgepast,
+Ik hou haar in mijn vingers vast."--
+De goede vrouw begreep zijn doel
+En klom heel handig op een stoel,
+En in de waschkom kwam een plas,
+Waar de Oceaan een kind bij was.
+"Zoo hoort het", zeide Sparrebeen,
+"Jij bent mijn vrouw en jij alleen,
+Nu raakt mijn vijand toch er aan;
+Hij moet tot stof en asch vergaan."--
+De muis keek angstig in het rond
+Of zij niet iets ter redding vond;
+Maar Sparretje, tot wraak gestemd,
+Hield haar maar stevig vastgeklemd,
+'t Verdelgingsmiddel is gereed,
+En Eva, bijna nat van 't zweet,
+Zegt: "Spar! ik heb mijn best gedaan,
+Stuur vlug nu 't ondier naar de maan."--
+"Verdrink!"--zoo gilde Sparrebeen,
+"Verdrink, verga!"--doch zie met een
+Beet 't dier den moordnaar in de hand,
+De man verloor bijna 't verstand;
+"Help!" schreeuwde hij, "help spoedig, wijf!
+Nu valt het ondier mij te lijf!"--
+Nochtans de muis bekomt haar straf;
+Spar schudt haar in de waschkom af.
+
+
+
+
+XI.
+
+
+Toen 't muisje zich in vrijheid vond
+Zwom 't dapper in de waschkom rond,
+En Spar keek met zijn lieve vrouw
+Of 't ondier nu verdrinken zou.
+Het was een klucht om aan te zien
+Hoe daar die eerzame echteli�n,
+Met angst en moordzucht in hun blik,
+Verbeidden 't vreeslijk oogenblik.--
+'t Scheen dat de muis haar kracht verloor;
+Zoo bracht ze mooi ons paar van 't spoor;
+Ze sprong in 't eigen oogenblik
+De waschkom uit, tot beider schrik.--
+Nu was aan Spar geen houden meer;
+Hij vloekte luid en sloeg al we�r,
+Maar wat of wie hij raken mocht,
+Het muisje had zich vrij gekocht.--
+'t Was vreeselijk om aan te zien,
+Die diep verslagen brave li�n.
+Zij vonden, tot hun bitter kruis,
+Geen zelfvoldoening met de muis.
+"Hou vast,"--zoo gilde Spar verbaasd,
+Maar door zijn overdreven haast,
+Viel tafel, stoel en hij meteen,
+Met alles over Eva heen.
+Daar lag de boel en Spar zei: "Vrouw!
+De muis is waarlijk ons te gauw;
+Ik geef de brui van al die pret,
+Vang jij de muis,--ik ga naar bed."
+
+
+
+
+XII.
+
+
+Zoo had--wie heeft het ooit gehoord?
+Een muis de zoete rust gestoord
+Van 't vreedzaamst echtpaar dezer aard!
+Aurora stookte reeds haar haard,
+En zag met deernis op de vrouw
+Die bijna trilde van de ko�.
+De muis was vrij--keek om en rond,
+Of zij nog hinderpalen vond.
+Ging naar haar schuilplaats--piepte luid,
+En stak toen be� haar pootjes uit.
+"Gij zoekt mijn dood, vervloekt gespuis!
+Maar ik bleef vrij"!--weg was de muis.

+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.

+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate

+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
