02 Rede, Mädchen, allzu liebes

03  Am Gesteine rauscht die Flut

04  O die Frauen, o die Frauen

07  Ein kleiner, hübscher Vogel nahm den Flug

08  Wohl schön bewandt war es vorehe

09  Wenn so lind dein Auge mir

10  Am Donaustrande, da stehe ein Haus

11  O wie sanft die Quelle sich

12  Nein, es ist nicht auszukommen

13  Schlosser auf! Und mache Schlösser

14  Vögelein durchrauscht die Luft

15  Sieh, wie ist die Welle klar

16  Nachtigall, sie singt so schön

17  Ein dunkler Schacht ist Liebe

18  Nicht wandle, mein Licht, dort aussen

19  Es bebet das Gesträuche
