This was the cause of my wishing to go away, hoping I would either get clear of it or something might turn up, I knew not what.

One course was advised by the doctor, and you all thought as he did--that was to keep company with the intention of getting married.

This was not the communion that I wanted or that was congenial to my life.

Marrying would not, I am convinced, have had any permanent effect.

It was not that which controlled me, then or now.
