Richard Wagner to Mathilde Wesendonck

August 9, 1863 · Penzing

Letter

Dear Child, A mighty big letter — to which I have nothing of account to add for the moment — went off to your address at Zurich a few days since. As you are stopping away so much longer,* please let it be sent on to you (not that it's very amusing). A thousand greetings ! Your Aug. 7, Penzing. R. W.
