I cannot fix on the hour, or the spot, or the look or the words, which laid the foundation. It is too long ago. I was in the middle before I knew that I had begun.

i love you - most ardently. please do me the honour of accepting my hand. sir, i appreciate the struggle you have been through, and i am very sorry to have caused you pain. believe me, it was unconsciously done. is this your reply? yes, sir. are you...are you laughing at me? no. are you rejecting me? i'm sure that the feelings which, as you've told me have hindered your regard, will help you in overcoming it. might i ask why, with so little endeavour at civility, i am thus repulsed? and i might as well enquire why, with so evident a design of insulting me, you chose to tell me that you liked me against your better judgement.
