Main board: Das Dürsrütilied - The Dürsrüti Song

"Lord, for your mercy I call upon you" - this is how the Dürsrüti Song begins, which in 21 stanzas tells of the arrest of some Anabaptists on the Dürsrüti farm near Langnau. During their time of joint Bible study, they are attacked by Anabaptist hunters and taken away.

Bible study and Anabaptist songs - both were dangerous at that time. Thus a pastor in 1699: "The bailiff's court was held in the presence of Mr. Landvogt, and there appeared Margrethli Zimmermann, who was found by me with an Anabaptist book in her hands, learning the Dürsrütilied."
