�Angetan hat�s mir dein Wein,

Lindenwirtin du Junge!�
(Smitten am I with your wine,
and your eyes� bright shine,
Linden hostess so young!)
The text on this stein is the concluding portion of the first verse from the poem �Die Lindenwirtin�, written by Rudolph Baumbach in 1876 and set to music in 1878 by Franz Wilhelm Abt. The poem honors �nnchen Schumacher (1860-1935), perhaps the most famous innkeeper in German history and a popular figure with German students.
