This much, however, is irrefutable: even if Heine knew in 1823 the five Loreleidichtungen, that had then been written, those by Brentano, Niklas Vogt, Eichendorff, Schreiber, and Loeben, and if he borrowed what he needed from all of them, he borrowed more from Schreiber than from the other four combined. Whore Brentano sowed, many have reaped.

You cannot write to me any longer through Hans Pomer. Pray send me the woodcut which represents Stabius as S. Koloman. I have nothing more to say that would interest you, so God bless you. Given at London, October 24. Your servant, NIKLAS KRATZEH. Greet your wife heartily for me.

He afterwards married a girl named Elizabeth, who bare him a daughter, Katharina, and three sons. The first son he named Albrecht; he was my dear father. He too became a goldsmith, a pure and skilful man. The second son he called Ladislaus; he was a saddler. His son is my cousin Niklas Duerer, called Niklas the Hungarian, who is settled at Koeln.

I dined once with the Portuguese, and have given a brother of Tomasin's three fl. worth of engravings. Herr Erasmus has given me a small Spanish mantilla and three men's portraits. I took the portrait of Herr Niklas Kratzer, an astronomer. He lives with the King of England, and has been very helpful and useful to me in many matters. He is a German, a native of Munich.

Pray excuse us; Niklas will serve refreshments. We will not detain you long." As they turned to leave the room Elizabeth Denton suddenly seized Patsy's hand. "He will live?" she whispered. "Tell me he will live!" Patsy's heart sank, but she summoned her wits by an effort.

Backman described quite accurately the appearance of the house, its furniture, how the rooms were situated, where the suspected man lived, and gave a very correct account of Niklas Jonnasson's personal appearance. The doctor also asked him if he had observed that Jonnasson had a scar on his right hand.

God Almighty be gracious to him. Next we have letters from and to Niklas Kratzer, Astronomer to Henry VIII. He had been present when Duerer drew Erasmus' portrait at Antwerp. Duerer had also made a drawing of Kratzer, and later on Holbein was to paint his masterpiece in the Louvre from the Oxford professor.

To the honourable and venerable Herr Niklas Kratzer, servant to his Royal Majesty in England, my gracious Master and Friend. First my most willing service to you, dear Herr Niklas. I have received and read your letter with pleasure, and am glad to hear that things are going well with you. I have spoken for you to Herr Wilibald Pirkheimer about the instrument you wanted to have.
