The word majesty was now dropped; but, with the deepest respect and humility, I was addressed as the count. What could I do? I accepted the title, and from that moment I was known as Count Peter.

Did you know about Adelbert von Chamisso?

Belles lettres
Chamisso's earliest writings which include a verse translation of the tragedy Le Compte de Comminge in which "heilsam" is used in place of "heilig" show a 20 year old still struggling to master his new language and a number of his early poems are in French. This botanist is denoted by the author abbreviation Cham. It was written partly to divert his own thoughts and partly to amuse the children of his friend Julius Eduard Hitzig.
