Letter

[Mid- August 1857?] There you make acquaintance with a very amiable person [Robert Franz?]. Good-morning ! [The poem of " Tristan und Isolde" was completed and its last act given to Frau Wesendonck on the iZth of September 1857/ a memorable day — cf. p. 42 inf. In all likelihood the next letter refers to a recital thereof, such as we know the Herweghs etc. to have been present at. — Tr.]
