[ca. mid-March 1859] [1]
This is the second note to my dearest Sophie, the first to say no.—& now to say ‘yes,’ because Robert advises it.
I am half afraid of the air & climbing on the stairs .. but if you will come dear dear Sophie .. I shall have you, at any rate, & then we can consider about having also the first fruits of the changed weather–
Your loving .. (& should
she not be grateful?)
