At Sèvres again — and then.
The priest, Bagnitsky, and Lehmann the painter to dinner.
What is irritating is that I have a fever every day.
No way of putting on flesh... And yet I take six or seven glasses of goat's milk a day...

Jacques poses. It seems to me it will never be finished.
The Sèvres painting and the portrait of Jacques — two nightmares!!
Oppé came with an English buyer, but I was out.
