am
no
bird;

no
net

me.

"I
am
not
speaking
to
you
through
mortal
flesh;
it
is
my
spirit
that
addresses
your
spirit.

"I
have
not
broken
your
heart,
-
you
have
broken
it;
and
in
breaking
it,
you
have
broken
mine.

"I
have
a
strange
feeling
with
regard
to
you.
As
if
I
had
a
string
somewhere
under
my
left
ribs,
tightly
knotted
to
a
similar
string
in
you.

"I
offer
you
my
hand,
my
heart,
and
everything
that
belongs

"I
know
no
medium:
I
never
in
my
life
have
known
any
medium
in
my
dealings
with
positive,
hard
characters,
antagonistic
to
my
own,
between
absolute
submission
and
determined
revolt.

"My
bride
is
here,"
he
said,
again
drawing
me
to
him,
"because
my
equal
is
here,
and
my
likeness.

"There
is
no
happiness
like
that
which
comes
from
the
understanding

oneself.

"I
have
for
the
first
time
found
what
I
can
truly
love—I
have
found
you.

"The
more
solitude

"I
have
spoken
to
you,
dear
reader,
of
the
impressions
made
on
me
by
the
whisper
in
my
ear—instantly,
electrically—"】

"You
are
my
sympathy—my
better
self—my
good
angel.

"It
is
vain
to
say
human
beings
ought
to
be
satisfied
with
tranquillity:
they
must
have
action;
and
they
will
make
it
if
they
cannot
find
it.

"Love
is
like
the
wild
rose-briar;
Friendship
like
the
holly-tree.
The
holly
is
dark
when
the
rose-briar
blooms,
but
which
will
bloom
most
constantly?"】

"I
keep
my
feelings
to
myself,"
he
said.
"And
those
I
have
are
not
for
others
to
guess
at.

"I
have
often
thought
that
matrimony
is
a
hopeless
sort
of
thing,
and
I
have
advised
every
young
man
I
know
not
to
enter
it
too
soon.

"To
be
together
is
for
us
to
be
at
once
as
free
as
in
solitude,
as
gay
as
in
company.

"I
am
not
an
angel
and
I
will
not
be
one
till
I
die:
I
will
be
myself.

"I
cannot
let
you
burn
me
up,
nor
can
I
resist
you.
No
mere
human
can
stand
in
a
fire
and
not
be
consumed.

"The
soul,
fortunately,
has
an
interpreter
–
often
an
unconscious
but
still
a
faithful
interpreter
–
in
the
eye.
