Letter from Mary Shelley to Percy Bysshe Shelley London the 25th of October, 1842.

2
00:00:10,700 --> 00:00:14,300
Shelley. So what a minute did I see you yesterday?

3
00:00:14,630 --> 00:00:18,680
Is this the way, my beloved, that we are to live till the sixth in the morning?

4
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:24,650
I look for you. And when I awake, I turn to look on you. Dearest Shelley, you are solitary and uncomfortable.

5
00:00:25,100 --> 00:00:28,430
Why can't I be with you? To cheer you and to press you to my heart.

6
00:00:29,270 --> 00:00:34,370
My love, you have no friends. Why then, should you be torn from the only one who has affection for you?

7
00:00:35,150 --> 00:00:38,750
But I shall see you tonight. And that is the hope that I shall live on through the day.

8
00:00:39,650 --> 00:00:44,120
Be happy, dear, shouting, and think of me. Why do I say this, dearest and only one?

9
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,780
I know how tenderly you love me and how you opine at this absence from me.

10
00:00:48,290 --> 00:00:56,990
When should we be free from fear of treachery? I send you the letter I told you from Harriet and a letter we received yesterday from Fanny.

11
00:00:57,470 --> 00:01:01,870
The history of this interview, I will tell you and I come that perhaps that it is already a day.

12
00:01:01,900 --> 00:01:06,350
Fanny will not be allowed to come at all. My love, my own won't be happy.

13
00:01:07,010 --> 00:01:10,430
I was so dreadfully tired yesterday that I was obliged to take a coach home.

14
00:01:11,060 --> 00:01:19,010
Forgive this extravagance, but I am so very weak at present and I've been so agitated through the day that I was not able to stand a morning rest.

15
00:01:19,010 --> 00:01:22,490
However, will that be quite right again? I shall be quite well when I meet you this evening.

16
00:01:23,060 --> 00:01:29,330
Will you be at the door of the coffee house at 5:00? That is disagreeable to go into those places and I shall be there exactly at that time.

17
00:01:29,330 --> 00:01:31,310
And I we will go to St Paul's where we can sit down.

18
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:37,430
I send you Diogenes as you have no books, hook a miserable temper does not to send the books I asked for.
