By revolving in my mind the contents of your last letters, I have put myself into great agony, not knowing how to interpret them, whether to my disadvantage (as I understand some others)or not. I beseech you earnestly to let me know your real mind as to the love between us two. It is needful for me to obtain this answer of you, having been for a whole year wounded with the dart of love, and not yet assured whether I shall succeed in finding a place in you heart and affection. This uncertainty has hindered me of late from declaring you my mistress, lest it should prove that you only entertain for me an ordinary regard. But if you please to do the duty of a true who will be, as I have been, your most loyal servant (if your rigor dose forbid me), I promise you that not only the name shall be given you, but also that I will take you for my mistress, cutting off all others that are in competition with you, out of my thoughts and affections, and serving you only.
