3 o'clock
Your brother looks like an angel this morning ; he is not drest , he is not undrest , but somehow , easy , elegant and enchanting : he has no powder , and his hair a little _ degagée _ , blown about by the wind , and agreably disordered ; such fire in his countenance ; his eyes say a thousand agreable things ; he is in such spirits as I never saw him : not a man of them has the least chance to-day . I shall be in love with him if he goes on at this rate : not that it will be to any purpose in the world ; he never would even flirt with me , though I have made him a thousand advances . My heart is so light , Lucy , I can not describe it : I love Emily at my soul : 't is three years since I saw her , and there is something so romantic in finding her in Canada : there is no saying how happy I am : I want only you , to be perfectly so . 3 o'clock . The messenger is returned ; Sir George is gone with a party of French ladies to Lake Charles : Emily blushed when the message was delivered ; he might reasonably suppose they would be here to-day , as the wind was fair : your brother dances with my sweet friend ; she loses nothing by the exchange ; she is however a little piqued at this appearance of disrespect . 12 o'clock . Sir George came just as we sat down to supper ; he did right , he complained first , and affected to be angry she had not sent an express from _ Point au Tremble _ .
