For her part she seemed well pleased in the alteration of my behaviour, though her satisfaction may very probably have been assumed. I understood women well enough to know that though she did not love me she was probably annoyed at seeing my new character sit upon me so easily.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
