What has past between you cannot be recalled, but may yet be repaired by uniting you to my Sister.

You have ever been, you still continue to be, my dearest and indeed my only Friend.

I feel for Agnes the truest affection, and there is no one on whom I would bestow her more willingly than on yourself.

Pursue then your design.

I will accompany you tomorrow night, and conduct her myself to the House of the Cardinal.
