You must have been in an extremely loving mood when you wrote that
letter, and looking at its date I found that you wrote at a time when
I could not keep you out of my mind. I was longing, longing for you,
beloved. It must have been mental telepathy. At any rate that very
evening I removed an old ring of mine, something told me to do it,
and sure enough with your letter came that wonderful ring to take
the place of the one I had discarded. To think, dear, that you will
be my very very own. I wish you were here now so that I could better
express my feelings for you. But alas being so far apart I can but
press your picture to my heart and lips. I am living in my dream of
the future which like all great happenings, and like your sparkling
solitaire, casts its brilliant beams ahead.
You know I love you dearly and I hope the day of supreme joy will
soon come, when I shall register a vow before God, you and myself,
to devote my life and love to you. I will be yours, yours--entirely
yours and you will be mine, all mine! Won’t it be wonderful, too
wonderful to believe?
As you read these lines I am longing, longing for your embraces and
caresses.
When thinking of you and the short sweet hours we had together, the
mirror reflects my eyes like two bright stars of the desert night and
I shall keep them shining to lead you back across the desert to your
Sana.
Many thanks again, Carl, for the lovely surprises of today.
Having now your splendid photograph to make clearer my mental picture
of you, I am reading your character and writing down my observations
and comparing them with what astrology has to say.
This is my Carl--You are a keen observer, quick in thought,
practical, energetic, patient, good natured, self controlled and
determined. You are a planner and a diplomat. The finely chiseled
features of your head and hands, as well as your silky hair and fine
skin show natural refinement, love of beauty, harmony and quality.
This is also proven by your voice. Your forehead, nose and eyes,
prove your intellectual power.
Zodiac says: (Born between August 22nd and September 23rd). You have
a fine and discriminating mind, great endurance and aptitude in
acquisition of knowledge. You are capable of attainments in whatever
line you undertake; but if you follow literary pursuits or astronomy
you will obtain decided distinction. Whatever you do is done in an
orderly, systematic manner. You are fond of variety. You possess
great rallying powers and it would be hard to keep you down. You are
emotional, generous, large hearted, fond of music and the arts. You
are instinctively discriminating, having likes and dislikes, but do
not care to be restrained or opposed in your inclinations. You like
things tasty, rich and elegant but are still a strict observer of the
rules of health and nature.
