What would | do If | thought
Dick was untrue to me? Again

him that | cannot imagine him

Not for one moment did | suspect
him of wrongdoing with Mrs

for admiring a pretty girl or a
clever woman. Because he loves
me is no reason why his apprecia-
tion of the good qualities of other

would be means to an end
