No, Eleanor, do not forget it all.

Do not forget this--remember that I never have, and never will, allow my feelings as a private man to influence my conduct as a public functionary.

I have many duties to perform; duties which are arduous, disagreeable, and dangerous, but difficult as they are, I believe that I am able to perform them.

I do not wish for advice, and I will not permit interference.

Now go down, Eleanor; our friends are below, I heard their steps a while since, as they came in.
