When you weary of hidden agony and solitary weeping come to me at Schonhausen; you will find there no gayeties, no worldly distractions, but a silent shady garden, in which I sometimes seem to hear God's voice comforting and consoling me. Here you can weep unnoticed, and find a friend who will not weary you with questions." "I thank you, and I will come. Ah!
Here Bismarck received our countryman, the historian Motley, and his daughter, with the delightful welcome to companionship and the simple and informal family life so charmingly portrayed in Motley's correspondence. The whole region of Schönhausen was as early settled as Berlin itself.
Your v.B. Since leaving Reinfeld I no longer have heartburn; perhaps it is in my heart, and my heart has remained with Nan. Schönhausen, October 1, '50. My Angel, I am so anxious that I can hardly endure being here; I have the most decided inclination to inform the government at once of my resignation, let the dike go, and proceed to Reinfeld.
I am living in comfort and economy with Werdeck, only rather far away, in consequence of which I already feel the pavement through my soles. Cordial remembrances to the mother and the Bellins. I am writing on the table d'hôte table of the Hôtel des Princes, and a small salad has just been brought for my supper. Your very faithful B. April 3, '48. Schönhausen, August 21, '48. 8.30 P.M.
Hitherto it has been intermittent only: hitherto the Crown-Princess has resided in their Berlin Mansion, or in her own Country-house at Schonhausen; Husband not habitually with her, except when on leave of absence from Ruppin, in Carnival time or for shorter periods.

The same year, his father having died and left him Schönhausen, he was elected a member of the Landtag, a quasi-parliament of the eight united Diets of the monarchy; and his great career began.
I am genuinely homesick to be quietly with you all in Schönhausen. Have you received the ribbon for Aennchen? Tuesday. Hans is just breakfasting, and eating up, from sheer stinginess, a quarter pound of butter that he bought three days ago, because it begins to get old. Now he screams that my tea is there, too. I close for today, as I have something to do afterwards.
I am not going to the Harz. Much love. In great haste. Your most faithful v.B. Over the blue mountain, Over the white sea-foam, Come, thou beloved one, Come to thy lonely home. Old Song. Schönhausen, October 2, '49. My Beloved Nan, I am sitting in our quiet old Schönhausen, where I am quite comfortable, after the Berlin hubbub, and I should like to stay here a week, if the old Chamber allowed.
It seems to me still the most sensible thing of all, if you are only strong enough for the trip. If the Landtag should continue longer than to the 6th of June which I still hope it will not let us look at the plan more carefully. * Your faithful B. Schönhausen, Friday, May 28, '47.
"Still, I venture to implore your majesty to induce my dear young friend to accept the hand of Count Voss; she will thus perhaps be cured of her unhappy and hopeless passion." Sophia was resolved to follow this advice; she therefore drove to Schonhausen to see the young queen, and consult with her as to the most efficacious means of accomplishing this result.
