“One word more. You look as if you thought it tainted you to be
loved by me. You cannot avoid it. Nay, I, if I would, cannot
cleanse you from it. But I would not, if I could. I have never

too much absorbed with other things. Now I love, and will love.
But do not be afraid of too much expression on my part.”
