Intro
He sheds tears seeing his idol, Beethoven, facing death due to rapidly declining health. Perhaps it is a mercy that he hasn't lost consciousness yet. Even if he cries, the man cannot hear him.
Example 1
Schubert shows Beethoven the sheet music for his song cycle, "Die schöne Müllerin".
Admiring it, he writes on a piece of paper with a pen since he has lost his hearing. "It is truly a pity that I did not know you, Schubert. If only I had met you ten years ago... You will surely become a great musician who shines upon the world. Please, do not lose heart."
As Beethoven attempts to continue writing, Schubert, deeply shocked by Beethoven's haggard appearance, runs out of the room in tears.
