Nearness again. Now a new Scene was drawn
up in my Heart: I begun to feel, that I was not
sincere & upright, I did not like to see so much
in my <sic>Uncleaness</sic>  <corr>Uncleanness</corr> in my Heart, I was afraid for

were a great <sic>Rejoysing</sic>  <corr>Rejoicing</corr> to her: Du hast meine Klage
verwandelt in einen Reigen. o du in Freuden-<unclear>osl</unclear>
verwandler meiner <unclear>Zährlein</unclear>! She declard, she never
had such Watchwords in her Life on her Birth-Day.
In the Beginning of Febr. a <sic>gallaping</sic>  <corr>galloping</corr> Consumption
