July 31: 1889 dear mr Cobden-Sanderson, I had such a sweet let- / ter from Rosalind yesterday / that I must write to you / to say that henceforth, / God helping me, I will remember her by her / gentlest moments and / not her hardest. I regret / having amused myself / by telling you about / the evening I spent / at Palace Green - / though I know you are / her safe friend, / If we did not hope to / be judged finally at our / best and not our worst / we should be in despair / - it seems clear to me / (at this moment) that / I ought so to judge of / my friends, and - if / possible - of my enemies. / You will understand / this - you are / never ashamed of saying / that you seek higher / things. / love to your wife, / Ever truly yours / G. Burne-Jones.
