| ~ Ziel genannt, Kraft gespannt ~ | |
| This verse is a motto of a Postillion (mail coach driver) for the German Federal Postal Service. Note all the symbols of the federal postal service on this nice relief postman's occupational stein made by Reinhold Hanke (#1265) and decorated by C. G. A. Wiederhold of Berlin ca. 1900. Cf. Chris Wheeler's "steinmarks.com". | |

Ziel genannt, Kraft gespannt, Herz obenan, so fang's an. |
Destination known, power tense, spirits high, so let's begin. |
