* * * To-morrow we're starting for Florence, Truly rejoiced, you may guess, to escape from republican terrors; Sir. C. and Papa to escort us; we by _vettura_ Through Siena, and Georgy to follow and join us by Leghorn. Then----Ah, what shall I say, my dearest? I tremble in thinking! You will imagine my feelings,--the blending of hope and of sorrow! How can I bear to abandon Papa and Mamma and my sisters? Dearest Louisa, indeed it is very alarming; but trust me Ever, whatever may change, to remain your loving Georgina. P.S. BY MARY TREVELLYN. * * * "Do I like Mr. Claude any better?" I am to tell you,--and, "Pray, is it Susan or I that attract him?" This he never has told, but Georgina could certainly ask him. All I can say for myself is, alas! that he rather repels me. There! I think him agreeable, but also a little repulsive. So be content, dear Louisa; for one satisfactory marriage Surely will do in one year for the family you would establish, Neither Susan nor I shall afford you the joy of a second. P.S. BY GEORGINA TREVELLYN. Mr. Claude, you must know, is behaving a little bit better; He and Papa are great friends; but he really is too _shilly-shally_,-- So unlike George! Yet I hope that the matter is going on fairly. I shall, however, get George, before he goes, to say something. Dearest Louisa, how delightful, to bring young people together! |
