Though the things I said as a child reflected heavily on the time, as I am certain many of you are aware the year for me was 1630, or surmised the era from speaking to me, I feel I must reiterate that certain beliefs of mine are much changed.

For one - and I hope this is clear by now - women are very capable physicians.
The second, Catholics certainly do not drink the blood of babies. In addition to this: people from lands foreign to my own are not evil, nor are they barbarians. Lord, I cannot believe I said such th
The third, husbands mustn't ever beat their wives, nor is it their God-given right to do so.

Did I say the King was infallible as well? I cannot recall. If I did, that is a truth I stopped believing long ago as well.

I apologise for frightening children with talk of devils and Hell and other nonsense. Again, it was a reflection on the time, as was my belief that I could see the Devil himself. [LIES. OH THE LIES.] I also ask for forgiveness if I had offended anyone, and admit that as children we tend to move along from one matter to another so quickly that I can hardly recall if I had upset anyone.

And I formally apologise to one Edward Sexby for striking him in the face with a poppet.



[Private to Una]

Forgive me for being a day late with this, madam, as yesterday became unexpectedly busy for me. Might I still request your company?

[Private to Parker]

You helped me a great deal last week, and I hadn't the good sense at the time to thank you for it.

Thank you, madam.

[Private to Sveta]

I have something for you.

[Private to Howie]

Have you any spare time for me to-night?
