comprehending and returning。             As not only the safety of your intercourse�察�

but    even   of   both   your   lives�察  �depended     on   being    shielded    even    from 

suspicion�察    �the   utmost    wariness     and   caution    was   observed     in  all  your 

proceedings。       Tell me whether you succeeded in your efforts to this end。 

     I replied�察�that�察�at the time�察�I had no doubt but I had。 

     And   yet�察 �said he�察 �drawing   something   from  his pocket�察 �and putting   it 

into   my   hand�察  �there   is   the   slip   of   paper�察  �with   the   preconcerted   emblem 

inscribed   upon   it�察  �which   the   infatuated   girl   dropped   in   your   sight�察  �one 

evening�察  �in   the   left   aisle of   that church。   That paper   you   imagined   you 

afterwards burnt in your chamber lamp。                In pursuance of this token�察�you 

deferred     your    intended    visit�察 �and   next   day    the  lady   was    accidentally 

drowned�察  �in   passing   a   river。    Here   ended   your   connexion   with   her�察  �and 

with her was buried�察�as you thought�察�all memory of this transaction。 

     I leave you to draw your own inference from this disclosure。 Meditate 

upon it when alone。         Recal all the incidents of that drama�察�and labour to 

conceive the means by which my sagacity has been able to reach events 

that took place so far off�察�and under so deep a covering。                   If you cannot 

penetrate these means�察�learn to reverence my assertions�察�that I cannot be 

deceived�察�and let sincerity be henceforth the rule of your conduct towards 

me�察�not merely because it is right�察�but because concealment is impossible。 

     We   will    stop   here。   There     is   no  haste  required   of    us。  Yesterday's

discourse will suffice for to´day�察�and for many days to come。                     Let what 

has already taken place be the subject of profound and mature reflection。 

Review�察  �once   more�察  �the   incidents   of   your   early   life�察  �previous   to   your 

introduction to me�察�and�察�at our next conference�察�prepare to supply all those 

deficiencies occasioned by negligence�察�forgetfulness�察�or design on our first。 

There must be some。          There must be many。          The whole truth can only be 

disclosed   after   numerous   and   repeated   conversations。          These   must   take 

place at considerable intervals�察�and when ~~all~~ is told�察�then shall you be 

ready   to   encounter   the   final   ordeal�察  �and   load   yourself   with   heavy   and 

terrific sanctions。 

     I shall be the proper judge of the completeness of your confession。 

Knowing previously�察�and by unerring means�察�your whole history�察�I shall be 

able to detect all that is deficient�察�as well as all that is redundant。                Your 

confessions have hitherto adhered to the truth�察�but deficient they are�察�and 

they must be�察�for who�察�at a single trial�察�can detail the secrets of his life�拭�

whose recollection   can fully  serve him  at an   instant's notice�拭              �who   can 

free   himself�察  �by   a   single   effort�察  �from   the   dominion   of   fear   and   shame�拭�

We   expect   no   miracles   of   fortitude   and   purity  from  our   disciples。     It   is 

our   discipline�察  �our   wariness�察  �our   laborious   preparation   that   creates   the 

excellence we have among us。             We find it not ready made。 

     I counsel you to join Mrs。 Benington without delay。                 You may see me 

when and as often as you please。             When it is proper to renew the present 

topic�察�it shall be renewed。         Till then we will be silent。Here Ludloe left 

me alone�察�but not to indifference or vacuity。              Indeed I was overwhelmed 

with   the   reflections   that   arose   from   this   conversation。    So�察  �said   I�察  �I   am 

still   saved�察  �if   I   have   wisdom   enough   to   use   the   opportunity�察  �from   the 

consequences of past concealments。              By a distinction which I had wholly 

overlooked�察�but which could not be missed by the sagacity and equity of 

Ludloe�察�I have praise for telling the truth�察�and an excuse for withholding 

some of the truth。        It was�察�indeed�察�a praise to which I was entitled�察�for I 

have made no ~~additions~~ to the tale of my early adventures。                     I had no 

motive   to   exaggerate   or   dress   out   in   false   colours。    What   I   sought   to 

conceal�察    �I  was    careful   to   exclude    entirely�察  �that   a  lame    or  defective

narrative might awaken no suspicions。 

     The allusion to incidents at Toledo confounded and bewildered all my 

thoughts。     I   still   held   the   paper   he   had   given   me。 So   far   as   memory 

could be trusted�察�it was the same which�察�an hour after I had received it�察�I 

burnt�察   �as  I  conceived�察   �with    my   own    hands。    How      Ludloe    came    into 

possession of this paper�察�how he was apprised of incidents�察�to which only 

the   female   mentioned   and   myself   were   privy�察  �which   she   had   too   good 

reason to hide from all the world�察�and which I had taken infinite pains to 

bury in oblivion�察�I vainly endeavoured to conjecture。
