Zusammenfassung

Nicht gerade schmeichelhaft für eine Lady, aber ein althergebrachtes Urteil über den Charakter der Glücksfee. Verdient die Lady aber diesen schlechten Ruf?

Hinweg, hinweg, du Dirne, Fortuna! Jeder betet dich an,

Generalsynode, nimm ihr ihre Kraft,

Brich alle Speichen und Felgen von ihrem Rad

Und rolle die unzuverlässige Spitzbübin vom Himmelshügel

Hinab zu den Teufeln.

William Shakespeare
