Dearest Sylvia,

Do you realise that you have written 70 letters to me? (I exclude one formal note instructing me about my first visit to Pett.) I must have sent you as many and yet this letter is the one most difficult to write. If I am clumsy please remember another earlier letter in which I have pleased you. Remember what must be about 100 poems.

I love you, Sylvia. You came to me last night. Why did I not accept it at that? Because my heart struggles for a complete expression of love. Be-cause of the strain of waiting and hoping has been so difficult. I was ruthless. Forgive the pain I caused you. It is all mine now. Remember, and do believe, that, although I have hurt you, I hope for your happiness. Do not doubt my love. I love you and will never stop. I love you.

It is a terrible day for your return to Pett. But I hope that once there you will attain, out of your present indifference, ease. I hope with all my heart for the tranquility which I have done much to imperil. But, do not put all the blame on me: circumstances, and not only Lawrence, are guilty.

I believe what I learned last night has not been in vain and I trust you so that I know it is not too late.

Although I welcomed you to London with some poems I can't say much about your departure because I am disturbed. May I give you two quotations:

From town fair Arabella flies;
The beaux unpowder'd grieve. (T. Parnell)

Oh, for some other fear than this!
Love is leaving town. (Charles H Ford)

Remember how we disagreed amiably in the past on artistic matters? Our love can survive mistakes too.

I love you, I love you.

Dearest Sylvia, you have all my love.
