Traum: Cirkusgasse ― Haus wo die Großeltern wohnten (wenn auch anders aussehend), in den dritten Stock, wo ich eine Cocotte besuche Thüre 10,― sie sieht etwa aus (wie ich jetzt weiß) wie die Sängerin Hilgermann, blond, übertragen, fett;― ein Gespräch, dessen ich mich nicht erinnere;― ich bereite Pr.s vor;― sie liegt halb nackt; das ganze hat keinerlei erotische, kaum sex. Betonung. Später hat die Praterstraße etwas dabei zu thun.
