Vienna, May 6, 1849. Recently I dreamed I lived in a very narrow street where two funeral processions met. The coffins could not pass each other, and one was pushed through the window into my room until the other had gone by.

Zwei Särge in einer engen Straße
Wien, 6. Mai 1849. Neulich träumte mir, ich wohne in einer sehr engen Straße, in welcher sich zwei Leichenzüge begegneten. Die Särge konnten einander nicht ausweichen, und der eine wurde so lange durchs Fenster in mein Zimmer hineingeschoben, bis der andre vorbei war.
