Dann träumt ich von der Meistersingerouverture, ich dirigirte aus einer Partitur ins Leere, war aber innerlich der Musik gewiss;― sah dann etwa die Decoration des 1. Aktes ― Beckmesser war schlank und edel, umarmte Sachs oder Stolzing,― symbolisch hatte jeder (?) einen drei(?)fach aufgeschnittnen Rettich in der Hand, die Schnittflächen mit Salz bestreut; auch eine Gruppe zu dritt,― von rückwärts, umschlungen, wie Botticelli Figuren war zu sehen; etwa in der Mitte ein weißer Engel und rechts und links Beckmesser? und Sachs. Das ganze in Beziehung zu der (nicht durchaus sichtbaren) Kirche.
