O how quickly the sculpture of life (ei! jån' kähne Jündemruoger) is a religious poem, used as the text for the Fourth Linguifex Relay.

Original Wiobian	English
«ei! jån' kähne Jündemruoger snirre ure nungnung Troh; Sioner röbes ƕieme Puoger', ind' enwülze Þafte quoh'. ei! lind mause bückne mungel, Wiote-Wuzes duoɟ niens Kliten'. ionem' ƕind Benußes zungel; Kuobs mes pepen, Ƕeiges miten.»	O how quickly the sculpture of life Shatters into tiny little fragments! The splendor of the king on his throne Is completely swept away by sea-waves. Ye who are come hither stationed here, By Heaven's grace ye are guests. Just like us, ye act in order to be judged; Therefore let us be generous to the pauper, and give to our fellow man.
