1 2 Ayzehu by Peter Rothbart (text from the Ethics of the Fathers) English Who is wise He who learns from every man. From all my teachers, I gained wisdom. Who is strong He who subdues his evil impulse. He who is slow to anger is better than a strong man. He who rules his spirit is better than one who conquers a city. Who is rich He who is content with his lot. When you eat of the toil of your hands, It will be well with you.

The interlude is meditative-like. When performing, the pianist should pay careful attention to the subtle differences in the note durations in the left hand. This will encourage the development of the form.
