And in alarm I tried once more the path towards religious quietude that
I had recently deemed impracticable,--until the fight within me calmed
again, and in renunciation I forced my emotion to bow to what my reason
had acknowledged as the Truth.

I.
Among my many good comrades, there was one, Julius Lange, with whom
comradeship had developed into friendship, and this friendship again
assumed a passionate character. We were the two, who, of them all, were
most exactly suited to one another, completed one another. Fundamentally
different though we were, we could always teach each other something. We
grew indispensable to one another; for years there seldom a day went by
that we did not meet. The association with his junior cannot possibly
have given Julius Lange a delight corresponding to that which his
society gave me.
