Oh, I'd forgotten that! Is that the poem that wasn't in Trier?
No, it's not the letter with the poem. It's letter 4 in the Volz collection: Carissima sorella! The revolting marriage rumors are making the rounds again. At the revue (1), you'll be presented with a young prince. Maybe they'll tell you to accept this so I can get out of here. But never do it for this reason if you don't have a better one. Don't let yourself be intimidated through consideration of my fate, and always follow the commands of your heart; that's the best guide in such cases.
(1) Volz adds: the Berlin military review started on May 28th, so this letter must have been written before that point.
