"Pottery Etched and Relief Mettlach
"Pottery Etched and Relief Mettlach Stein 2829, "Rodenstein",
“Pfaffenbeerfurth soll der Hochschul’ sein,
mein Durst den Herrn Studenten.”
(Pfaffenbeerfurt shall belong to the university,
my thirst to the students.)
The text and theme for this stein are drawn from a poem by Josef Viktor von Scheffel entitled “Die Drei Dörfer” (The Three Villages), in which Herr von Rodenstein and twenty of his friends engage in some truly incredible long-term drinking sessions at the Stag Tavern in Heidelberg, which he pays for by selling off two of the three vilages he owns in the Odenwald (Gersprenz and Reichelsheim). Eventually, he finds that he is no longer able to drink, so he has a formal document drawn up by his attorney, donating the third village (Pfaffenbeerfurth) to Heidelberg University and his “thirst to the students,” so that he can watch them drink as he once did, pewter mount and finial, (1) castle at top with flake, 9""H", No cracks or chips, minor glaze loss to blue at the top of stone, handle is good
