4 ⭐️ (just for Mrs. Fonss and also, for the captivating writing in Mogens)

"Farewell, I say it here, but it is not the farewell which will be the last to you; it I will as late as I dare, and all my love will be in it, and all the longings for so many, many years, and the memories of the time when you were small, and a thousand wishes and a thousand thanks. Farewell Tage, farewell Elinor, farewell until the last farewell." (Mrs. Fonss)
