| ~ Quält dich der Durst mein lieber Sohn ~ | |
| It would seem to make sense to follow the example of one's elders and have a beer to quench your thirst, but don't overdo it. This light relief stein is marked with the Mettlach logo and mold number 2943 and dated 1907. The 3.6 L stein shown below (Mettlach #2930) is the master stein for this set. | |
|
Quält dich der Durst mein lieber Sohn, bedenk' die Alten tranken schon. |
If thirst torments you my dear son, consider what your elders already drank. |

 |
| This verse also appears on this Stoneware, relief, 3.6L Mettlach Stein, Catalog # 2930. | ||
