Sein Intellekt war in Ordnung, aber die Erinnerung war vollständig getrübt, und als er in jener Station angekommen war, da nahm er sich ein neues Billet, durchquerte auf diese Weise Deutschland, Österreich, Ungarn, Galizien und fand sich zuletzt, als sein Gedächtnis wiedererwachte, in einem Obdachlosen-Asyl in Berlin.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":226,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/239/1924-04-05/p021"}],"english":["GA 239/1924-04-05/p021","GA 239/1924-04-05/p022"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":226,"en_words":219,"ratio":0.97,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.03,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":5642,"original_word_count":5468,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"D.
