[FROM SOPHIA DOROTHEA TO KÖNIGSMARCK]

[Ebsdorf,] _Wednesday, the 24th [September 1692]_.

I ought to give you an account of my doings of yesterday. I was alone

all day. Then arrived some one sent from the master of this place to pay

his respects to the Peda[gogue]. He got into such difficulties in his

speech that I could scarcely stop myself from laughing at it. He also

made a speech to the _Cœur Gauche_, and then took his departure. Then

there was a promenade on foot, and on our return there was supper, and I

had a conversation with the _Confidante_. This is the only pleasure I

have, for we always talk about you.
