who was responsible, wasn't it. I knew about him and I knew how he might have to suffer, and I didn't hesitate because I knew instinctively that you belonged to me and I to you. He had been a mistake. Often since we were married I have marvelled at the peace of mind I felt from the moment I proposed to you. It never entered my mind to question my right to you or to doubt what you would do. As if by instinct I knew that we had found each other and nothing that lay behind or ahead could keep us apart. Quite unconsciously I took the most compelling attitude. You didn't have any chance to act otherwise, girl, because destiny meant events to go as they did. Men forget easier than women. The o.m. will
