Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 03/19/2017 10:34 pm Heesen is located in Niedersachsen (Lower Saxony). Although I haven't attempted to apply my meager translation skills to this yet, my impression is that it was meant to be humorous. I see an element of the macabre present as well. It also appears as if the Voigt "bath house" is being touted for its beneficial health effects. In any case, a very colorful example of the genre. Colligo ergo sum Report this Post to the Staff

CelticKnot Bedrock of the Community United States 12819 Posts	Posted 03/26/2017 11:03 pm I have a live recording of an Irish band that was done in Bad Münstereifel. I always wondered what the "Bad" part meant but never took the time to look it up. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 03/27/2017 01:41 am I'll make a go at it. Left frame A. Nothing more can be done to help this beast. Science has failed. B. Then I'll go now to Voigt in Heessen. Right frame A. Is that the horse on which I had given up? B. Yes, with one or two hours under the mountain sun (i.e. "health lamp") of Voigt he was cured, he is blissful. Reverse A. Can you not tell me where the Miracle-Doctor Voigt has gone now? B. Just always go along the way the people before you went, (since he has come, everything is right?) Native speaker might do better with that reverse panel last line: in standard German it's something like << Ja doch geht sein Mann immer den Weg lang dem den ersten Leute geht, doch komm ist Sie, alle ist Recht. >> That 'Doch' is probably in response to the negative question in line A, << Kannst Sie Mich nicht sagen, wo ist nur den Wunderdoktor Voigt hingeht? >> Member ANA - EAC - TNA - SSDC - CCT #890 "Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossible before they were done." -- Louis D.
