Text:
�O Menschenkind dien hoher Mut, tut in der Kneipe selten gut.�
(Oh people, your high spirits rarely do any good in a tavern.)
�Wie mancher t�t stolz herein spazieren und kroch hinaus auf allen vieren.�
(How many walked in proudly and left on all fours.)
The individual elements forming the image on this stein are take from a more elaborate scene originally painted by Heinrich Schlitt (1849-1923), part of an 1890 mural that once graced the Wiesbaden Ratskeller, but was sadly destroyed in World War II.
