PROF. DR. FREUD WIEN IX., BERGGASSE 19

Dear Dr Bose

I could not read your kind letter without feelings of embarassment [sic].  In fact I do not deserve the gratitude of your children, owing to the fact that I and my daughter were full in work, my wife and her sister not speaking your language and difficulties in our household making it hard for us to invite them for meals.  So I had to be glad that one of my friends and pupils did it for me.  I was very sorry that your charming daughter did not like our dogs.  - But you know, in life we often get praised or blamed for no merit of our own.

With kindest regards
yours Freud
