But it is very interesting to hear him go on about the French, and it is so much gain to me, so long as that is what I came for.

I talk to him as much as I dare about Boston, but I do feel as if this were right down wrong--a stolen pleasure.
I can get all the Boston culture I want when I go back, if I carry out my plan, my happy vision, of going there to reside.

I ought to direct all my efforts to European culture now, and keep Boston to finish off.

But it seems as if I couldn't help taking a peep now and then, in advance--with a Bostonian.

I don't know when I may meet one again; but if there are many others like Mr.Leverett there, I shall be certain not to want when I carry out my dream.
