Georg Cantor. Chasing infinity. I must!

He was a very lonely man
Tortured by desire to understand
The world and the God’s mind 
Like a fearless seasoned sailor 
He embarked an elegant boat 
Of extreme mental endeavor 
With powerful white sails spread wide 
And four winds flying behind
He...

Schwarzes Wasser, Black Water, Agua *****
Nur schwarzes Wasser
Wie die Nacht ohne Mondschein
Heute die Mandau

As a night without moonlight
Today the Mandau

Sólo agua *****
Como una noche sin luna
Hoy día el Mundau

Ladies, Before Gentlemen
There were two young ladies all beautiful and brown, 
beauties who wore delightful designer gowns.
And many suitors suits made, playing melodies as fair
hoping these fair ladies would fall for such good cheer;
But they never did.

Then one evening in early June when the rains came too...

Inferno of Floods/ Höllenfluten/ Infierno De Inundaciones
Inferno of Floods/ Höllenflut/ Infierno de inundaciones   

Inferno of floods
After heavy rain in the mountains
Furious and unexpected

Death toll in muddy water
And nature will strike again

Inferno der Fluten
Nach starkem Regen in den Bergen
Wütend und unerwartet

Todesopfer in schlammigem Wasser
Die Natur wird wieder zuschlagen

Stollen (Pleiades)

So, the story goes, this
Saxony dried fruit bread
specially buttered, spiced, 
secured the pope’s blessing,
soon became famous, with
sales booming at Christmas.
Served, sugar sprinkled, sliced.

King Charles is a foolish megalomaniac.
He constantly sends his armies to the attack.
In the first few years of the eighteenth century,
Swedes have attacked Russia, Denmark, and Saxony.
Sweden exerts its regional hegemony
over the smaller states around the Baltic Sea.
Denmark was overwhelmed by the Swedish army.
We suffered...

Henry Iv: Prerogative and Piety
Enterprising Henry IV declares suzerainty over state
Xenophobic princes seek the royal prerogative to abate
Cautious king uses diplomacy, threats his minions to subjugate
Old rivals in Saxony Henry's consolidation with tyranny equate
Morose princes in the hinterland seek to avoid a similar fate
Manic King Henry sends his forces...

Hmmm... let's start with the Saxons, 
and not forget when they got their groove on. 
If it wasn't for the seax, and the -ons, 
we wouldn't be friends but talking like the Ottomans, mon.
