The little beak of
my
Doxerl
I would like to hear it
And after that
cheerfully
Shut it off with mine...
So, sweetheart, it's already
two
days that I
am
here with
my
old
folks and
quite pleased
with them. There is
no
"treatment" in sight.
I have
never
talked about
you
in particular, but I have often
dropped
your
name
here and there.
As I
see
it,
they
have
nothing against
our
relationship, evidently
because they do not think
any
longer that
we
are
ruining
our
future.
Besides, they
also know that I won't let
myself
be influenced. If I don't
provoke
them,
everything
will take
its
jolly
course
-
we a
cheerful
lively couple
and they satisfied
and
pleased
with that.
Oh, how happy I will be when I
can
clasp
you
to
my
heart
again!
This will be in the first days of
October! But
now
you
should have it
nice,
my
only
sweet
little
woman.
I haven't
yet
heard
anything
about
the
"position."
But I
am
taking
it
easy.
If I don't get
any,
the
"whole
family"
will
simply
have to
give
private lessons. Thanks to
the good domestic feed and the cheerful disposition of
my
parents,
my
optimism
has again
grown
immensely.
My
father has become
a
completely
different
man
now
that he
no
longer
has to
worry
about
money.
That
all the dark clouds have vanished
you
can
also
see
from the fact that
he is taking
a
trip
to
Venice with
me
after
we
have visited his
power
plants together. I would like to kiss
you
out of pleasure and
delight,
my
little dear angel.
But
you
have not written to
me
for
a
long time,
you
wild witch!
Are
you
afraid it will "miss its
target"
or are
you
furious,
you
little rascal? Or do
you
just
want
to make
me
curious and hungry? Or
can
it be that
you
are
afraid of
sisterly jokes?
The child makes herself hard to
get
What does he think about that?
It is
devoted,
after
all,
with all its fibers
To
its lad.
But because
you
are
such
a
wild little rascal, I
am
stopping
now,
furious like the devil!
Greetings
and kisses from
your
Albert
74.

My
dear Miez!
Today I received
a
registered letter from
you,
by
which I
can
tell that
you
fear it
may
fall into somebody else's hands.
No,
sweetheart,
I
got
all
your
letters
on
time, and also the
money
long
ago
in Melchthal. You
can
always
write to
me
exactly
the
way you
feel,
because for
my
parents
to
take
away
a
letter would be
as
unwise
as
it is useless.
By
the
way, you
don't have to be afraid of
