Believe me that I am truly vexed at not being able to attend the rendezvous which you propose, and which would have given me great pleasure the pleasure of seeing you again and of having plenty of talk with you. Always rely upon your EILSEN, July 3d, 1851. I had just come down from the Alps when I found your letter, which again has given me the greatest joy.
If Uhlig leaves you before the end of the month, he might inquire at Buckeburg whether I have left Eilsen, for he is obliged to pass through Buckeburg if he takes the railway from Cologne or Dusseldorf, which will be the shortest route to return to Dresden. I have written this to him in my last letter, which should have reached him.
Germany is your property, and you her glory. Complete your "Siegfried" soon. Of power and genius you have plenty; only do not lose patience. Perhaps we shall soon see you again in Germany; then you will reap what you have so nobly sown. Your sincerely devoted EILSEN, January 3rd, 1851 Have you made much progress with your book on the opera? I am very curious to see this work.
Send me soon one of those long letters which you write so beautifully. It will serve excellently well to relieve of his grief and sorrow. Your affectionate and devoted friend, EILSEN, November 26th, 1850 In the first week of the new year I shall be back in Weymar. At last I am able to send you the translation of your article.
I will send it back to you in a few days for that purpose, asking you, however, to return it to me at Weymar as soon as you have done with it. The day after tomorrow I have to go to Eilsen for the third time, but hope to be back here at Whitsuntide. At the close of the theatrical season we shall have either "Tannhauser" or "Lohengrin" once more.
Muller's letter I sent yesterday, after thinking from day to day that I should return. He will doubtless soon write to you, and you will find him a trustworthy, prudent friend, who genuinely esteems you. The Princess has remained in Eilsen, still confined to her bed; and I do not expect her till the end of this month. You may imagine how deeply her long illness has grieved me.
If, after having read it, you continue in your intention of giving "Lohengrin" at the Brussels theatre and of rendering a double service to dramatic art and the author, you can easily communicate direct with Herr Wagner as to the arrangements for carrying out the two conditions made and insisted upon by him. "I am, Sir, etc., "EILSEN, July 16th
B. read the original at Weymar. Farewell, be happier than I, and write soon to Your truly devoted friend, EILSEN, March 1st, 1851. Cordial thanks for your letter, which was a sure sign of your continued interest in me. Your domestic troubles have alarmed me very much; be assured of my genuine sympathy with any grief that may befall you.
The day after tomorrow I start for Eilsen, where please address me until further notice. Do not fail to return the manuscript of my "Lohengrin" article, of which, if necessary, you might have a copy made at Zurich. I shall want it between the 5th and l0th of November.
The direction of the former work I think I may now leave to Gotze. If your article on the Zurich theatre has appeared, send it also to me at Eilsen, where I shall employ my time in reading and working. I am most curious to know your views and practical proposals with regard to theatrical matters, and I shall be most ready to adopt your ideas as far as possible.
