In the first place, I collected and put together the letters I had written to my brother Heinrich, from New York. I did this because I thought they were important, as a picture of the destruction of civilization, and of the events which led up to it. And I have concluded to still further preserve, in the pages of this journal, a record of events as they transpire.
The pronunciation of the man was somewhat foreign, but pure, and free from the gibberish which the others employed in their speech. The voice seemed familiar to Otto, his ear weighed each syllable, and his blood ran quicker through his veins: "It is the German Heinrich, the evil angel of my life!" he felt, and wrapt himself closer in his mantle, so that his countenance was concealed.
Nor was that a solitary experience; the like befell wherever needed. Heinrich of Schwedt, the Ill Margraf, advancing with jocose countenance in the way of old comradeship, in those first days, met unexpected rebuff, and was reduced to gravity on the sudden: "JETZT BIN ICH KONIG, My Cousin, I am now King!" a fact which the Ill Margraf could never get forgotten again.
I knew nobody, and London seemed so full of fog and Englishmen. Now England has avenged herself beautifully. She sends me you. Others too mount the hundred and five steps. I am an annexe to the Paris Exhibition. Remains of Heinrich Heine. A very pilgrimage of the royal demi-monde!
And to Heinrich Dorn he writes, a few weeks after this: "I wish you could see Wagner's 'Tannhäuser. It contains profound and original ideas, and is a hundred times better than his previous operas, though some of the music is trivial. In a word, he may become of great importance to the stage, and, so far as I know him, he has the requisite courage.
"'I say, Lottchen, said one of his fellow-students, called Richter, across the table in a wine-cellar they were in the habit of frequenting, 'do you know, Heinrich Hoellenrachen here says that he saw this morning, with mortal eyes, whom do you think? Lilith. "'Adam's first wife? asked Lottchen, with an attempt at carelessness, while his face flushed like a maiden's.
While I lay ill, Princess Heinrich was the dominant influence in the administration of affairs. When I recovered, I found that Coralie Mansoni was no longer playing in Forstadt, and had left the town some weeks before. I put no questions to my mother. I also found that Varvilliers had resigned his official position in the French service, and remained in Forstadt as a private person.
"Why, Heinie," exclaimed Bob. "I never thought you would do a thing like that." "Why not?" demanded Heinrich. "I do my work here, don't I? Why should I not make a little extra money if I can?" "But Mr. Wernberg is a bad man." "He iss not," Heinrich protested stoutly. "He iss one man who knows right from wrong." Bob shook his head sorrowfully.
The career of Heinrich Olbers is a brilliant example of what may be done by an amateur in astronomy. He at no time did regular work in an observatory; he was never the possessor of a transit or any other fixed instrument; moreover, all the best years of his life were absorbed in the assiduous exercise of a toilsome profession.
... "The Prince of Mirow's visit was so curious, I must give my Most All-gracious Father a particular report of it. "Scarcely was the Prince got in, when they came to tell me, for his worse luck, that Prince Heinrich," the Ill Margraf, "was come; who accordingly trotted him out, in such a way that we thought we should all have died with laughing.
