我亲爱的Christoph，今天我同时收到了你的两封来信。
I will admit, Mr. Beethoven does not seem to be an easy guest.
我承认贝多芬先生看起来似乎不是一位宽厚的客人。
Perhaps I can help though, by saying that as strange as Mr. Beethoven seems, there are reasons for the way he acts.
但是我想说，尽管贝多芬先生似乎很奇怪，但是他这么做一定是有原因的。
You see, all day long, he is hearing his music in his head.
你瞧，一整天，他都是沉浸在脑子中的音乐里。
He doesn't think, perhaps, how very strange he sometimes seems to us.
也许，他不觉得自己有时让我们来觉得很奇怪。
We hear only his wild noises, but he is hearing beautiful music, music he will someday share with us.
我们仅仅只是听到了他那些狂躁的声音，但是他听到得确实美妙的乐曲，某天他会把这些乐曲分享给我们。
