My Cure — Daturi is Beaten by Some Soldiers — I Leave Wesel for Brunswick — Redegonde — Brunswick — The Hereditary¹ Prince — The Jew — My Stay at Wolfen-Buttel The Library — Berlin Calsabigi and the Berlin Lottery² — Mdlle. Belanger

He said that he hoped to cure me by the exhibition of sudorifices and mercurial³ pills, but he warned me I must be very careful in my diet and must not apply myself in any way. I promised to abide⁴ by his directions, and he said that he would read me the newspaper himself twice a week to amuse me, and by way of a beginning he informed me that the famous Pompadour was dead.

Thus I was condemned⁵ to a state of perfect rest, but it was not the remedies or the abstinence I dreaded⁶ most; I feared the effects of ennui⁷; I thought I should die of it. No doubt the doctor saw the danger as well as myself, for he asked me if I would mind his sister coming and working in my room occasionally with a few of her friends. I replied that, despite my shame of shewing myself to young ladies in such a condition, I accepted her offer with delight. The sister was very grateful for what she was pleased to call my kindness, for my room was the only one which looked in the street, and as everyone knows girls are very fond of inspecting the passers-by.
