[Footnote 52: In the Kneip they drink out of gla.s.ses with lids. If the user of a gla.s.s as he sits so far lifts up the lid that the next person can pa.s.s two fingers under, and cries "abgefa.s.st," "I've caught thee out!" the person is said to be "caught out," and pays a penalty in beer. To avoid this, he must when he lifts his lid, say "ohne abzufa.s.sen," "without being liable to be caught out."]
