By Christmas I intend to bring out the scores of all these - which
would make about fifteen hundred plates in octavo size.
The post affair in regard to your letter with the article on
Raff's "Fruehlingsboten" is very unpleasant to me. Neither has
come into my hands, or else I should assuredly have let you know
much sooner. What has become of it cannot now be traced; a
similar thing happened also with a manuscript sent to me from
Dresden, which was never able to be found. Excuse me, dear
friend, for the carelessness which you supposed I had shown, of
which I am in this case not guilty, as Pohl has already written
to you by my request - and continue to keep for me always your
sympathetic friendship, with which I remain, in complete
harmonious unison,
Yours most truly and gratefully,
F. Liszt
112. To Dr. Franz Brendel
Dear Friend,
Whilst you are trotting about in Leipzig aus Rand und
Band,[Uncontrolledly; a pun on the words Rand and Band (edge of
the paper and volume), Brendel being editor of a paper.] I have
been obliged to keep my bed, owing to a slight indisposition.
