You spoke to her just now, nevertheless.... (CLE: I paid her several compliments in your name, but it was to please you.) So then you don't care for her? (CLE: Who? I? Not in the least.) I am sorry for it, for that puts an end to a scheme which had occurred to me. Since I have seen her here, I have been thinking of my own age; and I feel that people would find fault with me for marrying so young a girl. This consideration had made me determine to abandon the project, and as I had demanded her in marriage, and had given her my promise, I would have given her to you if it were not for the dislike you have for her.
