Traum: Ein Bad, etwa wie Vöslau, ein Herr, in Gehrock, steigt auch ins Bad, angekleidet, weil er nicht baden darf; er heißt „Turban“, ist aber Kassner (dem er auch nicht ähnlich sieht). Ich spreche mit ihm höflich über Psychologie; meine, der Menschenkenner kommt der Wahrheit nahe in 60%,― aber weiß ganz genau in 13% (ich sage in 87%) der Fälle; ― bin in einer Loge, mit O., Leo, Bella, dieser sehr nah;― höre schlecht, gehe hinunter, bin auf einer Wiese mit Felsgestein, die Bühne?, will zurück, irre durch Gänge und Garderobe,― denke mir, das passirt sonst nur im Traum, nun erleb ichs wirklich ― wache auf, erzähle in einem neuen Traum jenen frühern dem Dr. Kaufmann; ― schwebe über eine Wiese, hügelig, in Sils Maria ― in einen Sumpf, wieder heraus, trocknen Fußes.―
