"4. We took possession of our lodgings this morning and had enough to do before dinner in arranging our books etc. We pay 9 thalers per month for our lodgings. Our dinner at the Erbprinz is 12 1/2 groschen = about 15d. In the evening we happened, in our walk, to find the Erholung, where a concert was going forward. The walks in the garden are beautifully arched over with treesfirs chiefly which with their falling leaves make a matting that deadens the sound of one's footsteps - a great charm to me. We sat down among the company, made up almost entirely of women, most of them good-looking well dressed bourgeoises, chatting with an air of real friendliness over their knitting etc. When we came home I read some of L.'s M.S. aloud." Diary 1854-1861 19
