at least to assist me for this present moment in Settling
my reckonings with the academy, the princess
having not ceased to dun be more it every
time we meet. à propos, I went several times
to see the most amiable of women, who has
had such Scenes with her mother as made her
whole frame shake, but you know her, she is
ferme and undaunted, she will most surely
go thro' what she undertook — her husband wrote
to her — she shewed the letter to her mother, has
answered immediately to her husband, malgre tout
le qu'on a fait pour l'en arretter, Mr H — n'est
de notre partie, mais n'ose point en paroitre,
the princess is to set out the 4th of May to Moscow
where the reconciliation will take place, and from
whence the newly connected couple will set out
to their estate, living the enraged mother to go
to her's. — the lovely woman wished & promised to write
to you, took it unkind of you not to have
written to her whilst others had your letters.
believe me, my dearest Sam, she would most
passionately love you, was she not most scrupulously
virtuous. with all the Sence a woman
can possess she has unconquerable prejudices, but
those prejudices, my dear Sam, make her the
more lovely, they inspire me such a veneration
