well, and as gay as a lark. I find now
the time is come to tinker at her moral
nature since her physical is established, so I
have begun to teach her the Assembly's
Catchetism. I don't believe you know what
that is: You're not orthodox enough: but
I can tell you it is a pretty tough compendium
of theology. If she were morbid or speculative
I would not do it, but she needs moral backbone.

this fresh country. If it is told it is sweet
and coyly vernal; just at that exquisite
girlish time that is neither but our blossom
yet, but full of odinous promise, and
persuasive winds and sunshine - gently
persuasive I must own, as yet! Rollin sends
his love to you as I do mine - Tell Mrs
Wright when you give it her that I am
so sorry she is ill. I know all the ins
and outs of that business, and do not
admire them. Goodby. Yrs very lovingly.
