I have for the first time found what I can truly love—​I have found you. You are my sympathy—​my better self—​my good angel; I am bound to you with a strong attachment. I think you good, gifted, lovely: a fervent, a solemn passion is conceived in my heart; it leans to you, draws you to my center and spring of life, wraps my existence about you—​and, kindling in pure, powerful flame, fuses you and me in one.
