OK, I’ve been waiting for someone to give it a try, but I guess I’ll have to jump in and hope I’m not completely off– maybe someone else can make approriate corrections-
French line: Oh Diable, le jour est perdue
(OhS***, the day(battle) is lost). The he says something else is perdue, but I can’t catch it. [img]images/smiles/icon_confused.gif[/img]
I think the lines are actually part of Henry V but will let you look it up!
German: Geh hin und such Dir einen anderen Knecht
Der Dichter sollte wohl das hoechste Recht, das Menschenrecht…..
Then Xev and Kai start to talk and my German is too rusty to catch anything else except a word here and there . [img]images/smiles/icon_sad.gif[/img] Very, very loose translation of line is:
Go and look for another guy; the highest rights, the rights of Man should be the Poet’s…… [img]images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]
I have no idea where it’s from but it sure sounds like a very high minded po-em.
Maybe it’s a message to Xev? Maybe not–I’m too lazy to look for the reference.
Now, you have to tell what you thought he was saying [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
