[Cz-L] Early Pruth bridge

 From Prinz Eugenius song - Austrian war hero with the Turks:

Er liess schlagen eine Brukken,
dass man kunt hinuberrucken
mit der Armee vor die Stadt.
( He let build a bridge
   So that the army could pass)

 Als die Brucken nun war geschlagen,
dass man kunnt mit Stuck und Wagen
  ( As the bridge now was built
     So they could with piece and carriage.)

  Picture -one of early wooden bridges across the Pruth .

   This song had many parodic versions.
