I feel that this small piece of text (last lines of F. Werfel's "Eine blass=
=3D=0D
-blaue Frauenschrift")
is a lot harder to translate than Edgar Allan Poe's, at least for me - and =
=3D=0D
I'm not so sure I succeeded
in doing it. Would you be kind enough to check?

(According to the character's personal style - a high-ranked official in th=

e Bureau of Inner Affairs
in Vienna - his literal style too seems a bit bureaucratic.)
