Description:
"I was arrested under suspicion twice that day, and finally made my escape to Holland by a ruse that fortunately worked... My first attempt to get out of Cologne got me as far as Brussels where I had to retreat again to Cologne. The scenes at the frontiers were harrowing, accompanied by qualities in the sky and landscape which I felt, but which might, under other circumstances, have seemed more normal. All I could think of was getting home where one could see no crowded small cities and where elms stood in wide pastures as in Brecksville."
