My beautyfull one and my dear Pepi,

Wandering again in my beloved ruins of the Roman Empire, the last regent of which had been our great old Emperor dei gracia, Franz Joseph I. The political clowns of our sinistre époque [illegible] him down. When do we meet again? Longing to hear from you. We left Libyia, seeing all the miracles, going shortly back to Morroco

Love as always yours OK
