Persuasion
Transcription: Page 1
My dear Cassandra,
You will be surprised to hear that I am once again at my desk. The weather has been most unpropitious for walking, and I find myself drawn back to the quiet of my studies. Persuasion is a curious thing, is it not? How the heart maintains its course despite the passing years...
Yesterday, we received word from the Musgroves. They are all well, though Mary continues to complain of her delicate health. Anne seems the only one with any true sense in that household.
