"I'm not very sure you do," May Bartram after a moment said; "and I'm not very sure I ought to want you to. It's dreadful to bring a person back at any time to what he was ten years before. If you've lived away from it," she smiled, "so much the better." "Ah if _you_ haven't why should I?" he asked. "Lived away, you mean, from what I myself was?" I'M NOT VERY SURE YOU DO MAY BARTRAM AFTER A MOMENT SAID AND I'M NOT VERY SURE I OUGHT TO WANT YOU TO IT'S DREADFUL TO BRING A PERSON BACK AT ANY TIME TO WHAT HE WAS TEN YEARS BEFORE IF YOU'VE LIVED AWAY FROM IT SHE SMILED SO MUCH THE BETTER AH IF YOU HAVEN'T WHY SHOULD I HE ASKED LIVED AWAY YOU MEAN FROM WHAT I MYSELF WAS
ink--the link it was so odd he should frivolously have managed to lose. "You know you told me something I've never forgotten and that again and again has made me think of you since; it was that tremendously hot day when we went to Sorrento, across the bay, for the breeze. What I allude to was what you said to me, on the way back, as we sat under the awning of the boat enjoying the cool. Have you forgotten?" He had forgotten, and was even more surprised than ashamed. But the great thing was that he saw in this no vulgar reminder of any "sweet" speech. The vanity of women had long memories, but she was making no claim on him of a compliment or a mistake. With another woman, a totally different one, he might have feared the recall possibly even some imbecile "offer." So, in having to say that he had indeed forgotten, he was conscious rather of a loss than of a gain; he already saw an interest in the matter of her mention. "I try to think--but I give it up. Yet I remember the Sorrento day. EARED THE AIR AND SUPPLIED THE LINK THE LINK IT WAS SO ODD HE SHOULD FRIVOLOUSLY HAVE MANAGED TO LOSE YOU KNOW YOU TOLD ME SOMETHING I'VE NEVER FORGOTTEN AND THAT AGAIN AND AGAIN HAS MADE ME THINK OF YOU SINCE IT WAS THAT TREMENDOUSLY HOT DAY WHEN WE WENT TO SORRENTO ACROSS THE BAY FOR THE BREEZE WHAT I ALLUDE TO WAS WHAT YOU SAID TO ME ON THE WAY BACK AS WE SAT UNDER THE AWNING OF THE BOAT ENJOYING THE COOL HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN HE HAD FORGOTTEN AND WAS EVEN MORE SURPRISED THAN ASHAMED BUT THE GREAT THING WAS THAT HE SAW IN THIS NO VULGAR REMINDER OF ANY SWEET SPEECH THE VANITY OF WOMEN HAD LONG MEMORIES BUT SHE WAS MAKING NO CLAIM ON HIM OF A COMPLIMENT OR A MISTAKE WITH ANOTHER WOMAN A TOTALLY DIFFERENT ONE HE MIGHT HAVE FEARED THE RECALL POSSIBLY EVEN SOME IMBECILE OFFER SO IN HAVING TO SAY THAT HE HAD INDEED FORGOTTEN HE WAS CONSCIOUS RATHER OF A LOSS THAN OF A GAIN HE ALREADY SAW AN INTEREST IN THE MATTER OF HER MENTION I TRY TO THINK BUT I GIVE IT UP YET I REMEMBER THE SORRENTO DAY
