You can travel from [[Berlin]] to [[Cologne]] in 2nd class without any particular inconvenience, then at 10 o'clock in the evening you'll board the sleeping carriage, and by the morning you'll be in [[Paris]].

	Just imagine that I didn't go to [[Kotek]]'s! I lacked the courage. On the third day of my stay in [[Berlin]], I was suffocated by homesickness, loneliness and a great loathing for this capital.

But know that as soon as you arrive in dear [[Paris]] and meet me, then the painful awareness of your separation from [[Nikolay Konradi\|Kolya]] will pass. ''You both need time apart''.

Пишу наудачу в Берлин. Если застанет письмо, поступи как я советую. Поезжай с 12-часовым поездом из Берлина (ст[анция]'' Фридрихштрассе''), а в Кёльне пересядь в спальный вагон. Ты можешь без особенных неудобств ехать от Берл[ина] до Кёльна во 2 классе, зато вечером в 10 час[ов] сядешь в спальный вагон и утром будешь уже в Париже. В спальном, т. е. ''Sleeping Car'', нужно место брать заранее в Берлине, в конторе, на ''Unter den Linden'' (только 1-ый класс.)

Представь, что я не был у Котека! Не хватило храбрости. На третий день моего пребывания в Берлине меня душила порядочная тоска одиночества и большое отвращение к этой столице. Не советую тебе оставаться более 2 дней. Жду тебя с распростёртыми объятиями. Чувствую, что ты будешь сильно тосковать о Коле, пока будешь один. Но знай, что как только приедешь в милый Париж и встретишься со мной, — то болезненная сторона сознания разлуки с Колей пройдёт. ''Вам обоим нужно на время расстаться''.

Целую крепко. Не в 74 ли номере ты живёшь.

Вчера был чудный тёплый, светлый день. Париж восхитил меня. Сегодня дождь. Обнимаю. Отель миленький: телеграфируй о приезде.
