I do assure you, Caroline, that it is infinitely more agreeable when he thinks you all that is perfect, and is passionately in love, than when he is mildly attracted by your golf and your _camaraderie_, while his unemployed senses, left at liberty to roam, stray to the more cunning young women of the chorus, who have realized that some feminine allurements are not bad things to cultivate. I DO ASSURE YOU CAROLINE THAT IT IS INFINITELY MORE AGREEABLE WHEN HE THINKS YOU ALL THAT IS PERFECT AND IS PASSIONATELY IN LOVE THAN WHEN HE IS MILDLY ATTRACTED BY YOUR GOLF AND YOUR CAMARADERIE WHILE HIS UNEMPLOYED SENSES LEFT AT LIBERTY TO ROME STRAY TO THE MORE CUNNING YOUNG WOMEN OF THE CHORUS WHO HAVE REALIZED THAT SOME FEMINE ALLUREMENTS ARE NOT BAD THINGS TO CULTIVATE
e maiden passion for a maid, Not only to keep down the base in man, But teach high thought and amiable words And courtliness, and the desire of fame, And love of truth, and all that makes a man. Now, even with your limited experience, Caroline, I am sure you will agree with me that there are very few modern maidens who are able to make a young man desire to shine in any of these ways. They do not inspire him with much reverence for themselves, or even much love! Often the most they can make him feel is that they play a good game of golf, or that they “aren’t bad sorts,” or something of that kind. For you must not forget that whatever the other person thinks and feels about you is what you yourself have given him the presentment of. It [Illustration: “_By all means play your golf and your tennis, but try and make your partner feel that these things are a means to securing the end he desires._”] entirely lies with you, therefore, what impression on his heart and brain you wish to create. W AFTER THE OTHERS TO LOVE ONE MAIDEN ONLY CLEAVE TO HER AND WORSHIP HER BY YEARS OF NOBLE NEEDS UNTIL THEY WON HER FOR INDEED I KNEW OF NO MORE SUBTLE MASTER UNDER HEAVEN THAN IS THE MAIDEN PASSION FOR A MAID NOT ONLY TO KEEP DOWN THE BASE IN MAN BUT TEACH HIGH THOUGHT AND AMIABLE WORDS AND COURTLINESS AND THE DESIRE OF FAME AND LOVE OF TRUTH AND ALL THAT MAKES A MAN NOW EVEN WITH YOUR LIMITED EXPERIENCE CAROLINE I AM SURE YOU WILL AGREE WITH ME THAT THERE ARE VERY FEW MODERN MAIDENS WHO ARE ABLE TO MAKE A YOUNG MAN DESIRE TO SHINE IN ANY OF THESE WAYS THEY DO NOT INSPIRE HIM WITH MUCH REVERENCE FOR THEMSELVES OR EVEN MUCH LOVE OFTEN THE MOST THEY CAN MAKE HIM FEEL IS THAT THEY PLAY A GOOD GAME OF GOLF OR THAT THEY AREN'T BAD SORTS OR SOMETHING OF THAT KIND FOR YOU MUST NOT FORGET THAT WHATEVER THE OTHER PERSON THINKS AND FEELS ABOUT YOU IS WHAT YOU YOURSELF HAVE GIVEN HIM THE PRESENTIMENT OF IT ENTIRELY LIES WITH YOU THEREFORE WHAT IMPRESSION OF HIS HEART AND BRAIN YOU WISH TO CREATE
