My dear little one, I don’t know why I’m telling you all this and so stupidly, because through brevity I completely distort my thoughts, which are not the ones you might imagine. In a word, my dear little one, besides all that, you haven’t written to me for two months, since the outbreak of war, but truly there has not been a single day when I haven’t spent hours of my time with you. My dear little one, you cannot believe how my current affection grafted onto that of former times has taken on a new force; but I’m sure you don’t believe me. You will see, in the end.
