"This time last year I have written passionate things myself to another - & to see this poem & to read E. C’s letters seems like meeting my own ghost - & I am frightened at it! I wish I had more practical skepticism about people & more absolute faith in the theory of affections & so forth. I love passionately – shut my eyes willfully
[...]
I wish I did not care about you as I do for I know full well I shall be made miserable for it some day"
