Did you miss anything--I'm sure you did--yesterday? I found a pin at the jetty of Penruthyn. It is so pretty, I've been ever so much tempted to keep it; so very pretty, that somehow, I think it could not have belonged to any one but to you.

Oh! I'm so glad, said she;

I thought I had seen it this morning, and could not think what had become of it. I never missed it till this evening.

For one moment allow me to hold your hand; don't take it from me yet. I _implore_, only while I say a few words, which you may make, almost by a look, a farewell--my eternal farewell. Margaret, I love you as no other man ever will love you. You think all this but the madness that young men talk. I know nothing of them. What I say is desperately true; no madness, but sad and irreparable reality. I never knew love but for you--and for you it is such idolatry as I think the world never imagined. You are never for one moment from my thoughts. Every good hope or thought I have, I owe to you. You are the good principle of my life, and if I lose you, I am lost myself.
