Best thanks for your esteemed letter, which I received Just now 
(evening 7 o.e.). You are a kind, sympathetic person; that I enjoy 
and accknowledge with much thanks, the more so, as such people are 
so rare« I thank you much for the illustrations of the Nymphaeae 
with your greetings^; I never met with this composition before, when 
you say, that you saw in the British Museum' an egyptian papyrus*. Hbw 
did it look'^iprobably also as shaped as with the 
and without flower.?*? First I amswer your questions.. If I have any- 
thing to be arranged in Vienna ? Greet Feazl and Unger and Notskyr 
I do not know more people there, and teil the people» they should 
send a copy of all theywrite to the library in Bonn:, because thisr 
library has need for that. If you were here, IM give 
you a book for Feazl: :a part of Weddell^s Urticaceae, which he has 
sent to me for Feazl, but I shall send it now . If you should be able, 
to get for me out of the opus of Effighausen and Soivonythe pages 
with the nature-self-prints^ of Nymphaea alba and Nuphar 
I would be rauch obliged; I have not seen them up to now. The entire 
opus costs 400 fl (florin, E.D.) and is not available here.. How long-^ 
get the long and Short internodes^ of the Twerthaus Nelumbo T 
The longest ones are 1| - 2 feet,but not thicker than a forefinger;: 
the Short internodes about^ 1/3 - | •*,and even that raostly not..
