Specimens of German Romance; Vol. II. Master Flea
Hoffmann, E. T. A. (Ernst Theodor Amadeus)
German fiction -- Translations into English
"My good Peregrine," said Master Flea very tenderly,--"my dear lady, I
must now leave you, and return to my people; yet I shall always be your
devoted friend, and you shall constantly experience my presence in a
way that will be agreeable to you. Farewell! heartily farewell to both
of you. And all good fortune be with you."
During this, he had resumed his natural form, and vanished without
leaving a single trace behind.
Here the records suddenly break off, and the wonderful history of
Master Flea comes to a joyous and wished-for--_end_.
