Excerpt

I am very far from being a wise girl.  So conscience whispers me, and, though vanity is eager to refute the charge, I must acknowledge that she is seldom successful.  Conscience tells me it is folly, it is guilt, to wrap up my existence in one frail mortal; to employ all my thoughts, to lavish all my affections, upon one object; to dote upon a human being, who, as such, must be the heir of many frailties, and whom I know to be not without his faults; to enjoy no peace but in his presence, to be grateful for his permission to sacrifice fortune, ease, life itself, for his sake.
