ON THE MORNlNG OF JUL Y 3,
:44:06
A CRADLE STOOD NEXT TO EFFl'S BED.
:44:08
DR. HANNEMANN PATTED
:44:10
THE YOUNG WOMAN'S HAND AND SAlD:
:44:12
''TODAY'S THE ANNlVERSARY
:44:14
''OF KOENlGGRAETZ,
:44:15
''PlTY lT'S A GlRL!
:44:16
''BUT NEXT TlME MAY BE DlFFERENT
:44:19
''AND THE PRUSSlANS HAVE MANY
:44:21
''VlCTORlES TO CELEBRATE.''
:44:26
She compIeteIy forgot that she was married.
:44:30
Those were happy hours.
:44:33
But best of aII...
:44:34
she Iiked to stand on the swing
and fIy through the air...
:44:38
with the feeIing, ''I'm going to faII!''
:44:41
A strange, tingIing sensation...
:44:43
a sweet thriII of danger.
:45:06
lnnstetten is a man of honour.
:45:08
He is indeed.
:45:10
And he loves me.
:45:11
Of course he does.
:45:14
And where there's love, it will be returned.
:45:16
That's how things are.
:45:19
l'm just surprised he hasn't taken
time off for a quick visit.
:45:24
-When one has such a young wife--
-lnnstetten is so conscientious...
:45:29
and wants to stand high in favour.
:45:32
Kessin is just a stepping stone.
And anyway...
:45:38
l won't run away from him.
:45:43
l belong to him.
:45:47
lf one is too affectionate
with such an age difference...
:45:51
people just laugh.
:45:52
Yes, they do, Effi.
:45:56
But one has to live with that.
:45:58
By the way, don't mention it to anyone...
