_Harrington_ to _Worthy_.
_Boston._
WHAT ails my heart? I feel a void here—and yet I verge towards
my happiness—for a few days makes _Harriot_ mine—_Myra_ says I had
_better not marry her_. What could prompt her to use such an expression?
_Better not marry her._ She has repeated it several times—and with too
much eagerness—I give no heed to it—and yet, why should it affect me in
this manner? Is it an artifice to fathom the depth of my love? Such
schemes are my utter aversion—it disturbs me—I hate such artifice—You
cannot imagine how it touches my heart.
Adieu!
