Book II. The Fight for Clara (1836-1840)

‘I will say no more of my happiness in possessing a girl with whom I have grown to be one through art, intellectual affinities, the regular intercourse of years, and the deepest and holiest affection. My whole life is one joyous activity.’—To Eduard and Karl Schumann, March 19, 1838.

‘No maiden, no angel from heaven, could be truer to me than you are; you alone could love me thus with a love so inexpressibly noble. I have no words for you; only a peep into my dreams could show you my thoughts of you. I hardly know what to say, but I have the beautiful consciousness of having been myself scrupulously true to you.’—To Clara, February 23, 1839.
