Contents Preface -- Acknowledgments -- Editorial Practices -- Introduction -- The Worlds of Sally McDowell and John Miller -- Fearing I say too much, unwilling to say too little. -- I have been able to say to you many things with my pen, that I could never have uttered with my tongue. -- I wonder if I shall love you as much face to face as I do in this letter-garb. -- Letters are poor substitutes for long talks, but we must put up with them. -- If you love that lady dont marry her
Shall I tell you all that goes in at the golden gate of Fancy or only of what goes out at the iron door of Fate? -- I may just talk to you about all things, as tho you were only another self. -- I want to love you not only with my heart, but with my mind too. -- So, good bye My dear Mrs McDowell. -- Those years of trial. -- Index
