Correspondence with Edith Maryon 1912–1924

GA 263 — 4 September 1923, Hildesheim

Letter from Edith Maryon

Edith Maryon to Rudolf Steiner

Sculptor's studio, Goetheanum, Tuesday
Dornach, near Basel [September 4, 1923]

Dear and honored teacher,

Just a few lines to greet you on your return journey and express the hope that everything went well without any difficulties. I did not write to you again in London because I was not sure whether you might travel on Wednesday morning, in which case my letter might have arrived too late.

How very interesting was the sign of the double Druid circle? It looks exactly like the structure, only perhaps the number of columns was different? I am impatient to hear much more about it and I am very envious of Dr. Wachsmuth. I hope you were not too tired after such a long and strenuous walk – as a mountaineer, that is certainly something new! Bauer is in Zurich for a few days. I am still tied down, the day of good health has not yet arrived, I still creep around like a snail and long for a body that I don't have to take into consideration, space to achieve something in this incarnation. But things are getting a little better, I have to be grateful for that, even though it's not what I want. If only I knew whether one can hope for Saturday morning or evening.

With warmest regards
Edith Maryon

Thank you very much for last Thursday's letter with sketch!
