1810
My golden child, my pearl, my precious stone, my crown, my queen and
empress. You dear darling of my heart, my highest and most
precious, my all and everything, my wife, the baptism of my children, my
tragic play, my posthumous reputation. Ach! You are my
second better self, my virtues, my merits, my hope, the forgiveness of
my sins, my future sanctity, O little daughter of heaven, my child of
God, my intercessor, my guardian angel, my cherubim and seraph, how I
love you!
Henry von Kleist was a German dramatist and poet. He wrote this to
