Traum. Aufführung meiner Stücke ― Nissen als Ormin, irgend ein kleiner Kerl der Eckold; Thimig erklärt mir (in der Schottengasse) alle hätten abgesagt;― dann in einem kleinen Laden, ein paar Stufen führen hinab, Burckhard bringt mir (ungefähr) drei eingewickelte Schächtelchen (Uhren ―?) ― er wollte sie mir zum 50. Geburtstag geben ― bedaure sehr, dass ich ein paar Tage früher gestorben wäre ― ich bin ergriffen, weine ― über ihn? mich ―?―
