[1] [Blumenkranz]
[2] If You read my dearest friend the book I send here, only so far as the tape shews – I believe Youʼill love Mrs P much better – I only am afraid it answers too much to Yr present disposition, and perhaps am wrong to send it – but, if Youʼill spend a minute for it, let it not be towards the night. – or As to the visit I mentioned I wont make it to day; from church Iʼll come home but [3] let me be so happy as to see You, Iʼll console You, and read for You and do any thing in my power to dissipate melancholy ideas – oh You deserve nothing but joy – why cant I prepare it for You unmixed with grief!
Yesterday I heard the Lamentations at St Peter very sorry not to meet You! to day by 4 I go to the minoriten [4] later to St Etienne – let me find You at the first because this hour is fixed (from 4 till 5) I am home before 7 and – alone with certainty!
