My love,

I’m glad that you feel better, but I really
wonder very much why you prefer staying
in dull Egern instead of enjoying my invitation.
Again you have wounded my heart. This
time it is even twice: You don’t come and
thereby my lover also not, which is like hell.

à l’autre côté, I would be pleased
if you would pick me up here at Wiesbaden.
Stiftstrasse 12/I – I’m working with concentration
upon the score of my ballet and I spare time
if I await you here.

Believe me,
Yours
heartiless
hänschen
