Additional Details:
Wolf of Hammerstein, a faithful vassal of Emperor Henry the Fourth was deeply grieved because he had only six daughters, but no son. One evening, a knight came to the gate of the fortress, craving for shelter and protection. It was Henry the Emperor, who had fled before his own flesh and blood. "Your position is indeed enviable, he said to his old faithful vassal, you have tender daughters and, thanks God, no son." The old knight recognized his error and overwhelmed his daughters with long-delayed caresses
