we
would get off the train and
go
on
foot
a
little
or
stay
over
for
a
short time. And then in
our
parts everything would be
new
to
you.
And when
my
parents
see
the
two
of
us
in the flesh in front of them,
all
their
misgivings
will
evaporate.
Was it nice in
Lenzburg;
there
was
such
a
terrible thunderstorm
on
Sunday,
I
was
afraid that
you
might
be still
underway.
I
hope
you
were
already indoors, sweetheart. Actually, I also wanted
to
give
you
some
cherries, but
you
couldn't have taken them
to
L[enzburg]. They
are now
waiting
for
you
under lock and
key.

I
am
very
diligent,
I
must
now
study
Weber hard, and in between
I
am
joyfully waiting
for
Sunday, when
I
can see
you
again and kiss
you
in the flesh and not
only in
my
thoughts, and almost the
way my
heart commands it and
everywhere everywhere.
What
are
you up
to, sweetheart? Do
you
too have such awful
weather.
