Oh, Petra, I am so frightened. Darling, something dreadful has happened. I'm sure -- I'm almost quite sure. Do you remember when I said Nature couldn't revenge herself? Oh, but she can and has, Petra. What shall I do? I've tried things, but it's no good, Petra, you've got to help me. I never thought of this -- we were so careful -- but something must have gone wrong. Petra, darling, I can't face it. I shall kill myself. He'll find out -- he must find out, and he'll be so cruel, and it will all be too terrible.
