In better vein is a letter from Beethoven to the copyist Rampel, who had worked for him during a period of many years. He had Beethoven's favor more than any other copyist, on account of a peculiar faculty he possessed for deciphering the master's handwriting. Bestes Ramperl, Komme um morgen früh.

"Seemingly," Pincus said; "aber this is the first time I heard it and I guess it's the first time the old man heard it too." Harkavy moaned and tried to sit up. "Easy there!" the doctor commanded. "Two of you take him inside and put him on a lounge if you have one."
And thus was the banquet carried on with joyousness; and when it was finished, Matholch journeyed towards Ireland, and Branwen with him; and they went from Aber Menei with thirteen ships, and came to Ireland. And in Ireland was there great joy because of their coming.
