Dürsrüttilied
Dürsrüttilied, an Anabaptist hymn containing 21 quatrains, describes the seizure of a congregation of Anabaptists with their preacher, Uli Baumgartner, on the Dürsrütti in the Emmental, Switzerland, in 1659. Most of the prisoners were, after prolonged imprisonment, taken to Holland. The song is found in Müller, Berner Täufer, 123-125.
