Monday, May 27:
R. slept only five hours and is very run down, but he works out his plan for keeping his singers free of firm engagements. He recommends Marie Lehmann to Milan; Wilhelmj is to set up a sort of school, and R. looks forward to the activities facing him.
In the afternoon went for a walk with R.; paths of great beauty. Saw the Hummelbauer, whose children sing us folk songs.
Back home, a nasty letter from Hans, reproaching me for having gone on the stage with the children. Bad impression. In the evening a visit to Malwida Meysenbug.
