At the end of Book One of a novel, a character stands near these things as her white dress shimmers in the moonlight, leading the narrator to stretch out his arms as she vanishes. The narrator of an 1823 poem hears the beckoning whispers of one of these things “at the well before the gate.” Hans Castorp repeatedly plays a song named for one of these things and hums it heading into battle at the end of The Magic Mountain. A poem named for one of these things uses the word “tándaradéi” (“tahn-DEH-rah-DIE”) to represent the call of a nightingale, the only witness to the narrator’s tryst. These objects title the most famous Minnelied (“mih-nuh-LEEDT”) by the medieval court poet Walther von der Vogelweide (“FOH-gull-VYE-duh”). A character who likes to read Homer under two of these objects often mentions them to his unrequited love Charlotte in an epistolary novel.
