head close to my breast and kiss you as I'd love to -- I know I could explain away all difficulties. If I have written anything since then that has left a bad taste in your mouth, tell me! For over eight months I've tried to live in only such a way as you might approve; and it has been my great happiness to do so. This sounds as tho I might have sown some scan'lous wild oats before I married you, but you understand me, dear! It is your right to point out my way, and criticise when you wish. I shall try to swallow it all with good grace -- which is saying a deal for me, now isn't it, Beloved? Your letter has knocked my "independence" in a vital spot. I feel like crawling under the desk to expire. After all this
