Iron Maiden - The Fallen Angel

On the day of Wagner's departure from Munich, December 10, Ludwig, suffering and feeling obligated to somehow alleviate the resentment inflicted on the composer by the Bavarian people, sent him another letter: “Dear friend, dear friend! It is impossible to express in words the pain that is now tearing apart my heart. Everything possible must be done to refute the new disgusting newspaper reports. It has gone too far. There is a constant struggle for our ideals, I do not have to convince you of this. We will often write a lot, I ask you about this! After all, we know each other and will not break the friendly relations that bind us. In the name of your peace, I should have acted as I did. Do not judge me unfairly ever - it would cause me the torment of hell. Be happy, my beloved friend! May your creations flourish!Deep heartfelt greetings from your faithful Ludwig. ”
