It's now just a question of whether the vet can make it this evening or tomorrow. I'm glad I came home because this is so hard for Katja. It's not easy for me either. Seventeen years is a long time. By tomorrow night she'll be reunited with Leela.
Gib deine Hand, du schön und zart Gebild! Bin Freund, und komme nicht, zu strafen. Sei gutes Muts! ich bin nicht wild, Sollst sanft in meinen Armen schlafen!
