Nature has favored our sex in giving us a choice between love and

motherhood. I have made mine. My children shall be my gods, and this

spot of earth my Eldorado.

I can say no more to-day. Thank you much for all the things you have

sent me. Give a glance at my needs on the enclosed list. I am

determined to live in an atmosphere of refinement and luxury, and to

take from provincial life only what makes its charm. In solitude a

woman can never be vulgarized--she remains herself. I count greatly on

your kindness for keeping me up to the fashion. My father-in-law is so

delighted that he can refuse me nothing, and turns his house upside

down. We are getting workpeople from Paris and renovating everything.
