Sehr geehrter Herr!
In der Hast des Absendens vergaß ich zu bemerken, daß die blauen Striche einen kleineren Druck (ähnlich wie die Anmerkungen in Bd. I ) zu bedeuten haben. Und wie gesagt, in wenigen Tagen folgt noch ein Manuscriptteil mit einigen Erläuterungen.
Mit ausgez. Hochachtung

Dear Sir,
In the rush of mailing it off, I forgot to tell you that the blue strokes are meant to indicate a smaller typesize (like the Observations in vol. I). And as I said, another section of the manuscript, with some elucidations, will on its way in a few days.
With kind regards,
[ sign’d: ] H Schenker
