4/8 I assure you of one thing--you will receive no willing answer from the fair baroness. She will scoff at you, and perhaps bid you farewell. See to it, then; do what you like, but bring her _with_ you, and bring her _here_. That answer will depend upon the answer the Baroness von Ritz makes to _me_, here, to-night! I can not go to her, so she must come to me. You have often served me well, my son. |
