Der Baumeister, der Dichter, der Magister verschmolz in seiner Person die Steinmetzkunst, welche ihm seine Façaden meißelte, die Malerei, welche ihm seine Fenster malte, und die Musik, die ihm seine Glocke schwang und in seiner Orgel klang.
The architect, the poet, the master, summed up in his person the sculpture which carved his façades, painting which illuminated his windows, music which set his bells to pealing, and breathed into his organs.
