Years later, the King sent Dr. Howe a gold medal in consideration of his work for the blind: by a singular coincidence, its money value was found to equal the sum which the Doctor had been forced to pay for board and lodging in the prison of Berlin. Making a detour, the party journeyed through Switzerland and the Austrian Tyrol, spent some weeks in Vienna, and a month in Milan, where they met Count Gonfalonieri, one of the prisoners of Spielberg.

These visits had not been given wholly to gayety, even in the days when she wrote, after a ball: I have been through the burning, fiery furnace, and it is Sadrake, Me-sick, and Abed-no-go!
