    "Southeast of Kordel we come across a Mariengrotte in the form of a semi-cave up in the rock slope with a statue and an inscription:
    "I don't want to be rich
    and gain no glory either.
    I don't want to shy away from work
    toil and trouble.
    I only ask you one thing; oh hl Maria
    let me hike
    until the last day."
    The first part seems as if someone wants to keep the rural poor willing to work; we definitely agree with the second passage.”

      Maybe you pause for a moment...each in their own way...

        Many Matthias brotherhoods from the Lower Rhine pass by here to rest at Ramstein Castle.
