Ludwig Tieck

“ Alfonso was wounded in the breast; and the blood at the same time ran from Antonio's arm.
The old priest, who had wisht to separate the quarrellers, now hastened forward; bound up their wounds and stancht the blood; then he called to some students that he had seen a little way off, and told them to carry the wounded Alfonso to the city.
Before he was removed, Antonio went up to him and whispered in his ear:
— If you are a man of honour, not a word about the cause of our fray will pass over your lips. ”

“ Go your own way henceforward, young man; wisdom, I now well see, is too lofty a prize for you. Your head is too weak for this fare; and you are longing again for the pap you were wont to get from the former fathers of your soul. ”
