ABSTRACT
When one object alone fills all our thoughts, 73 we interest ourselves no farther in events than as we find them relate to our own case. If you was not the only mover of my soul, could I have passed, as I have just done, from the most shocking despair, to the most flattering hope? The Cacique had several times, in vain, attempted to allure me to that window which I cannot now behold without shuddering; at last, yielding to repeated solicitations, I ventured to approach it. Ah! my dear Aza, how well was I rewarded for my complaisance!
