You remember the Vicomte used to say that ‘travelling develops the youthful mind,’ and if he never repeated it more than once every morning and once at night, I should not think that too often, for I am coming more and more to understand the truth of that assertion. I have no idea where he is now, the poor Vicomte, nor the Prince, nor, indeed, any of my friends, and I am suffering cruelly from this lack of news. Whenever you have a good opportunity to talk with any of those I love, give them a thousand, ten thousand kind greetings from me.
