You cannot imagine, my friend, the desire I have to possess Aline; I find such stinging detail in the dear young thing. It must be delicious to take her in tears! Sophie was all very fine, but Aline! We'll never go as far with the latter as with the former; there's some sort of consideration we owe to virtue—and to blood. But let's not swear on anything because, for minds like ours, the paths we take are, as you know, unbounded.
