Please comment below...…I must hurry, as it is already a quarter to seven — and the coach leaves at seven. When you are bathing, do take care not to slip and never stay in alone. If I were you I should occasionally omit a day in order not to do the cure too violently. I trust that someone slept with you last night.
I cannot tell you what I would not give to be with you at Baden instead stuck here. From sheer boredom I composed to-day an aria for my opera. I got up as early as half-past four. Wonderful to relate, I have got back my watch — but — as I have no key, I have unfortunately not been able to wind it.
What a nuisance! Schlumbla! That is word to ponder on. Well, I wound our big clock instead. Adieu — my love! I am lunching to-day with Puchberg. I kiss you a thousand times and say with you in thought: ‘Death and despair were his reward!’
Ever your loving husband
W. A. Mozart
P.S
See that Karl behaves himself. Give him kisses from me.
Take an electuary if you are constipated — not otherwise.
