"WENCESLAS MY DEAR,—I still believe in your love, though it is

nearly three weeks since I saw you. Is this scorn? Delilah can

scarcely believe that. Does it not rather result from the tyranny

of a woman whom, as you told me, you can no longer love?

Wenceslas, you are too great an artist to submit to such dominion.

Home is the grave of glory.—Consider now, are you the Wenceslas

of the Rue du Doyenne? You missed fire with my father's statue;

but in you the lover is greater than the artist, and you have had

better luck with his daughter. You are a father, my beloved

Wenceslas.
