I had never seen any one whom I
thought worthy of him & besides it
was an unspeakable happiness to
me to know that I held that
nearest & dearest place in his heart:
but when with a touch of your magic
wand, you stirred the deep waters
of his soul, that had never even
been ruffled before, pangs of jealousy
would shoot through my heart at
the thought; I soon, however overcame
these wrong feelings, for my better
judgement told me that you would
not be usurping my place, but by
increasing his happiness you would
be filling my cup to the brim:
oh! how I loved, at twilight, to sit
on his knee, & list to the oft repeated
story of your many charms & well I
knew how each would end with,
"Now Pet don't you love her"? & my ready
answer was always: "Yes, darling, very,
very dearly; far more than I can tell you":
