Budapest, February 12th, 1883
Have you had anything to do with a serious and really distinguished composer,—Rendano? He is giving his concert in Vienna one of these next days.
324. To Adelheid Von Schorn
If you were here, dear friend, you would perhaps find means to put into some sort of order the hundreds of letters that rain upon me from everywhere. These bothers and burdens of the amiability with which I am credited are becoming insupportable, and I really long, some fine day, to cry from the housetops that I beg the public to consider me as one of the most disagreeable, whimsical and disobliging of men.
To our cordial meeting at Weimar in the early days of April.
Ever your very affectionate and grateful
F. Liszt

325. To Otto Lessmann
Your sad news [After Wagner's death on the 13th February] pierces my heart. Worthily have you said of the great, undying hero of Art, "May the memory of him lead us on the right road to truth!"
