Zwischen 1818 und 1831.
Mit Friedrich Theodor Kräuter
His last secretary, Kräuter, who never speaks of him but with idolatry, describes his activity even at this advanced age as something prodigious. It was moreover systematic. A certain time of the day was devoted to his correspondence; then came the arrangement of his papers, or the completion of works long commenced. One fine spring morning, Kräuter tells me [Lewes] Goethe said to him: ›Come, we will cease dictation, it is a pity such fine weather should not be enjoyed; let us go into the Park and do a bit of work there.‹
