Anna waser: page from writing practice, zurich 1708. Text (from the third line in german kurrent script): "i value the greatest kingdom as the freedom of the heart, which depends on nothing but its origin, heaven, which does not anger its creator, does not offend anyone, only practices good, praiseworthy business, and immediately resists desires when they want to take a detour. Such a heart is a constantly willing life, always content, and no matter how things are in the world, always confident, remembering that everything, even the adversity itself, must only serve its best. ". Date: 1708.
