Sunday, April 16:
Visit from Prof. Bernays from Munich, the greatest living authority on Goethe; very pleasing acquaintance.
In the afternoon, somewhat to our dismay (inserted later: “surprise”) Dr. Schonaich; we ask him to stay with us.
When I am alone in the room, I feel an urge to go to the piano, and my mood translates itself easily into sounds. The departing rays of the sun greet me; thoughts bring me to tears.
In the evening Prof. Bernays much “intellectual” conversation.
