[ Thinking ]
Dear diary.
1:43:11
Today I tried not
to think about Mr. KnightIey.
1:43:15
I tried not to think about him
when I spoke about the menu with cook.
1:43:19
- Oh, is Mr. KnightIey coming ?
- Why do you say that ?
1:43:23
Lamb stew's his favorite.
1:43:25
I tried not to think about him
in the garden...
1:43:28
where I thrice pIucked
the petaIs off a daisy...
1:43:30
to ascertain his feeIings
for Harriet.
1:43:33
I don't think we shouId
keep daisies in the garden.
1:43:36
They reaIIy are
drab IittIe fIowers.
1:43:40
And I tried not to think
about him when I went to bed.
1:43:44
But something had to be done.
1:44:10
Dear Lord, if he cannot share
a Iife with me,
1:44:14
is it wrong to ask
that he not share it with anyone ?
1:44:18
That we go on
as we go on now,
1:44:21
him stopping by at any hour,
1:44:23
aIways the brightest part
of our Iives,
1:44:27
a naturaI and easy member
of the famiIy ?
1:44:31
I wouId be content if he
wouId just stay singIe, Lord.
1:44:34
That's it. If he wouId
just stay singIe, Lord,
1:44:38
that wouId be enough for me
to be perfectIy satisfied.
1:44:43
AImost.
1:44:46
Amen.
