As soon as he saw me he laid down his spade, and came towards me in a kind and friendly manner.
Als Serapion mich gewahr wurde, ließ erden Spaten sinken und kam mir freundlich entgegen.

Hoffmann, Ernst Theodor A.
He knew he could call on any number of bureaucrats and academics to do the spade work but someone with flair was going to have to lead them and be responsible for reporting back to him.
Für die aufwendigen, mühevollen Kleinarbeiten konnte er sich auf zahllose Bürokraten und Akademiker stützen, aber er brauchte jemand mit einem besonderen Gespür, um sie zu leiten und ihm Bericht zu erstatten.
