Description
Excerpt from Correspondence Between Schiller and Goethe, From 1794 to 1805, Vol. 2: 1798-1805
My landlord and his wife cannot say enough about the friendly way in which they were received by you, and about the beautiful things that were shown to them. I am really astonished at the interest with which the old man speaks of these works of art; the artist himself has every reason to rejoice at the effect produced by them in a character like his.
I am greatly disappointed that your intention of coming here has been thwarted so often, for, owing to a former letter of yours, I have been calculating upon seeing you ever since Christmas Day. I have meanwhile advanced some steps with my work, and am now in a position to lay before you four times as much as the Prologue amounts to, although this includes nothing, as yet, of the third act.
