He had no conception a woman s curiosity could be so keen, her tongue so long, and her inventive faculties so correct. He had spent whole days before the fatal moment of marriage in burning letters, erasing initials, destroying locks of hair, and making offerings of affection look as if he had purchased them with his own money.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
