Benjamin writes that he is grateful that his life has been spared over the past two years. He says he was cheered by several letters he received, one of which was from an unnamed woman whom Benjamin seems to fancy. He goes on to complain about the high temperatures and tells his sister Sarah that he will send her a piece of hard bread he took from a sack on a battlefield.
