"I'm infinitely less afraid," she told me one night, "of serving this monster's pleasures than being his main course at dinner." "Not me! I'd prefer a thousand times to be eaten than satisfy his disgraceful lust." "Don't you think that's taking virtue too far?" "No, it's only to cherish the man I love." "When things calm down a little, you'll explain to me such délicatesse. I still don't understand it."
