Le ore si contano sul meridiano corrispondente al tempo medio dell'Europa Centrale. Nei telegrammi impressi a caratteri romani, il primo numero dopo il nome del luogo di origine rappresenta quello del telegramma, il secondo quello delle parole, gli altri la data e l'ora e i minuti della presentazione.

[^1: Here, Kallman is probably referring to the deadline Henze mentioned in his previous letter, in which the composer stated that he intended to begin composing music for Moralities in October 1966. It is likely that the deadline refers to the time the librettists had to send their ideas to Henze for the work, whose theme they only proposed in a letter written the next day.]
