ndia　sounds　lovely。　I　can　just　see　myself　on　an　elephant

swaying　between　lanes　of　obsequious　natives。　But　I　don't　know　if

father　would　let　me　go。　We　must　see。

I　keep　living　over　again　the　lovely　times　we　have　had。　But　I

don't　think　you　liked　me　quite　so　much　towards　the　end；　did　you？

You　did　not　like　me　when　we　left　Paris。　Why　didn't　you？

I　love　you　very　much。　I　love　your　body。　It　is　so　clear　and

She　went　with　him　for　the　three　days　in　the　country　house

near　Oxford。　It　was　delicious；　and　she　was　very　happy。　But　the

thing　she　remembered　most　was　when；　getting　up　in　the　morning

after　he　had　gone　back　quietly　to　his　own　room；　having　spent　the

night　with　her；　she　found　herself　very　rich　in　being　alone；　and

enjoying　to　the　full　her　solitary　room；　she　drew　up　her　blind

and　saw　the　plum　trees　in　the　garden　below　all　glittering　and

snowy　and　delighted　with　the　sunshine；　in　full　bloom　under　a
