When the last sermon was preached, the last editorial written and the last raid done, then those who had preached, written and raided would be coming down to see them for a bit of fun again.
War die letzte Predigt gehalten, der letzte Leitartikel geschrieben und die letzte Razzia durchgeführt, würden jene, die gepredigt, geschrieben und die Razzien veranlaßt hatten, ja doch wieder zu ihnen kommen, um sich ein bißchen zu vergnügen.

After a time there appeared amongst the villages, in the depths of the Tyrolese mountains, a man in a brown robe, who preached in these hamlets, and then went away into the wildest parts of the forests, where he lived the life of a hermit.
Nach einiger Zeit erschien im tiefen Tirolergebürge ein Mensch, der in eine braune Kutte gehüllt in den Dörfern predigte und sich dann in den wildesten Wald zurückzog, wo er einsiedlerisch lebte.
