I can understand--that is the one you like better, is it? Well, never mind, dear, don't be afraid of your husband meeting him--they won't fight, will they? and if they do, what o' that? People that fight are often the best friends in the world when it's all over. (BLEN: If you request me to leave the house, I can only obey.) No, no, you mustn't go--take him to your husband and say right out, "My dear, this is my old sweetheart, and you must not be jealous, and though I did like him once, what o' that? I'm your wife now, and he can only be a friend, and there's no harm in a friend coming to see me." Be upright and downright, my dear--it's the best way--for where there's nothing concealed nothing can pop out.
