never Should have one , or think of one , or dream of ohe ? And did not you kiss the crucifix from top to toe ? And did not I introduce Onofrid as your sposo in order to keep you tight and right ? jdna did not my master get him
the ldttery office , by giving the £ o ] d :. necklace he bought at Venice to the right lady i And did he not pay the abbate , who goes about for a saint and a corijiirbr , five zecchins to cry up fyis numbers to all who are hisr penitents , to make them
sure of winning ; that is if it it ? tis not their fault ? If you do riot remember this , do you remember anything ? Oh my dearest and sweetest Auroral ! Much as I always loved you , I never thought I loved you as I do . I would scratch out all I have written ,
If & gentleman could send a Hotter to a lad y with scratches nih it . There is no time to get another sheet before the post l ^ oes buift and the ink won ' t Mold , I doubt . It is as thick as ID urham rijust&rd : and that fool llM * bii ^ laldf bdtli vinegar and Slacking . Cfcrsa Ins Cupidity !

I mean if you take him fofkhy ^ thing more serious than a husband . We shall certainly return into Tuscany when my master's work comes out , and perhaps before ; that is , when lie has made his bargain for recommendations and
advertisements . But may be your uncle when he said lover meant no harm : for parsons and other learned people don't much mind how they talk ; and one can hardly understand half they say upon some subjects . I have no objection to your having him at a proper time . * * # ' * jBut think of me just as soberly and seriously as I am nowthinking of you : not one hair ' s
breadth more or less . Think how kind and affectionate I have always been , and that you will soon see me again , and you need not be ashamed of seeing me unless you run out of all bounds and stark-mad ; I am not bloody-minded ; but I can break a man's bones , if need be , and can write as de £ p a tragedy on an enemy ' s sqohce as the best man living .
