Death to the Mayor

Zuem Ambtman

Glueg bist gewessen in allen sachen,
streith und händel aus zue machen.
zuem tantz dan ich dich hurthig hol.
ich trage schon das Prothocol.

    To the Mayor.

You were clever in all matters,
to settle disputes and quarrels.
I'll quickly fetch you for the dance.
I'm already carrying the protocol.

The Mayor

    Antwort.

Wann Du schon trägst das Protokoll,
Bei Dir zu sein, ist mir nicht wohl.
Daß Du mich auch zum Tanz willst führen,
Du könnst das Protokoll verlieren.

    Answer.

When you already have the protocol,
I don't feel comfortable being with you,
and that you also want to take me to the dance.
You could lose the protocol.

Basel, Death comes running
Büchel, Mayor

The image of Death running to the civil servant / mayor is taken from Basel.

The word "Prothocol" is written in Latin letters in the text, and also in the picture itself, where it says "PRO / THOCO / L" on the book that Death has in his hand.

This is where the south wall ends.
