I slipped this letter into my Imitation, an old copy that used to belong to my mother and still smells of lavender, the lavender she would put in her linen in a sachet, as they did in the old days. She didn’t read it often, for the print is small and the paper so thin that her poor fingers, chapped from all that washing, couldn’t turn them.

Never … never again … Why? … It’s true the word is sweet.

I very much want to sleep. To finish my breviary, I had to walk up and down, my eyes were closing despite myself. Am I happy or not? I don’t know.

6.30 a.m.

The countess died last night.
