concerning a change she finds in
your mood answer her thus: Tell
her that you. in a sudden rage, have
murdered your grandmother; tell
her that you have robbed orphans
and that remorse has stricken YOU;
tell her your fortune is swept away:
that you are beset by enemies. by
bunions, by any kind of malevolent
fate; but do not, if peace and bappi-
