The Companions of Jehu

CHAPTER XLVII
15/16

Do not be alarmed; do not talk to me of the snow, or tell me that my footsteps will be seen.

This time it is not I who will go to you, but you who must come to me.

Do you understand?
You can safely walk in the park, and no one will notice your footsteps.
Put on your warmest shawl and your thickest furs.

Then we will spend an hour in the boat under the willows together, and change our roles for once.

Usually I tell you of my hopes and you tell me of your fears; but to-morrow, you will tell me of your hopes and I will tell you of my fears, my darling Amelie.
Only, be sure to come out as soon as you have made the signal.
