Sehr verehrte Gnädige Frau!

Ihr Brief erreicht mich erst heute ‒ in Mailand, wohin mich mein Beruf vorübergehend geführt hat. Anfangs Juni kehre ich zurück und werde mich dann melden.

Greatly revered lady,

Your letter did not reach me until today ‒ in Milan, where my work has temporarily sent me. I return at the beginning of June and will let you know then.
