131 July 30, 1918 Daphne, my dearest,- How is my beautiful wife this evening? That's good; same here. Will you come with me into the garden? We'll sit on the bench against the vine-covered old wall and I'll tell you something while we watch the moon sneak up over the chimney pots of this quaint town. What I have to tell is a very old story as the world goes but it has as many version as there are pairs of lovers. And I'm thinking that mine is a good one; you, in your generous sympathy would say so, anyway. I have never been able to tell it to you. I have given you fragments of it but very, very small ones. And perhaps I never shall be able to put all of it in words because it is a story that goes too deep into human feeling
