[In answer to Letter 383]
Monday, Aug. 7
And so you have actually delivered to the fair implacable extracts of letters written in the confidence of friendship! Take care -- take care, Belford -- I do indeed love you better than I love any man in the world: but this is a very delicate point. The matter is grown very serious to me. My heart is bent upon having her. And have her I will, though I marry her in the agonies of death.
