Yesterday was a very wonderful day4 — one of our unforgettable days — Bless you my heart’s comrade5 — I love you for all my life with all that is deepest in me — You were divine to me — The memory of it will be with me all the time in Russia and I shall feel your spirit with me — Dear one, don’t feel utterly lonely for really you and I have a comradeship which is very rare and I do not think anything better is possible in this world — Take care of yourself Darling and don’t get too unhappy. All my heart goes out <to> you.
