"Marianne's note, by assuring me that I was still as dear to her as in former days, that in spite of the many, many weeks we had been separated, she was as constant in her own feelings, and as full of faith in the constancy of mine as ever, awakened all my remorse.
-La nota de Marianne, en que me decía que yo todavía le era tan querido como antes; que pese a las muchas, muchas semanas en que habíamos estado separados, ella seguía tan fiel en sus sentimientos y tan llena de confianza en la fidelidad de los míos como siempre, despertó todos mis remordimientos.
