Extra Information Epigraph of No.1 (from Das Begräbniss der Rose by Adolf Stern (1835–1907))
Maiglöcklein tönen leise
Mit fernhinsäuselndem Hall
In seltsam schauriger Weise
Durch Trauerglockenklang
„Laßt uns die schöne Hülle
Begraben tief ins Moos!“
Da liegt sie kühl und stille
Von Glanz und Düften los.
