“Ist dir dein Liebchen ungetreu,
so nimm es nicht zu schwer.

There is many a rose blooming out there,
that would love to be picked.)
A Landsknecht was a feudal serf used for military purposes by his master. These “soldiers” were often traded between landowners and were, in a sense, the equivalent of modern mercenaries, with the important difference that they were not free to choose their employer.
