XXVI

_Sunday:_

I slept last night soundly for some strange reason, and woke quite late

on Sunday morning.

One frequently has some sense of depression or some sense of exhaltation

before one is quite conscious, and quite often cannot account for either

state. Presumably Alathea had left me full of contemptuous indifference,

but I awoke with a feeling of joy and satisfaction, which gradually

changed to flatness, when I became fully aware of things.

For indeed what reason had I for great rejoicing? None, except that the

menace of the Suzette bogie may be lifted.
