I was very unhappy, and Clarendon thought I was very ill; and I acknowledge that I was anxious about you, and let all the blame fall on you, innocent, generous creature! I heard my husband perpetually upbraiding you when he saw me ill all, he said, the consequences of your falsehood and all the time I knew it was my own.
