"Instead of Dresden, chance brought us to the Rhine, and we took advantage of the opportunity and travelled along the Rhine with steamer. Just think of the places we passed! Past Hochheim, where there's Hochheimer wine, past Rüdesheim, where there's Rüdesheimer wine, past Johannisberg, where there's Johannisberger wine, and then there's Markobrunn, where there's Markobrunner wine: how could we not have a drink? So we drank some Rhine wine and composed a song about it, which we'll send you soon."
