My Dearest Friend,

吾之好逑，

…should I draw you the picture of my heart it would be what I hope you would still love though it contained nothing new.

妾身，东施效颦，笔底春风，雕琢心意。冀望良人，感慕缠怀。

I look back to the early days of our acquaintance and friendship as to the days of love and innocence, and, with an indescribable pleasure, I have seen near a score of years roll over our heads with an affection heightened and improved by time, nor have the dreary years of absence in the smallest degree effaced from my mind the image of the dear untitled man to whom I gave my heart.

追忆往昔，吾人，一见倾心，情愫缱绻。白水鉴心，琴心相挑。鸾凤和鸣，情意绵绵，无以言表。光阴如梭，芳年华月，琴瑟之好，情逾骨肉。欢畅岁月，拳拳在念。挚爱之郎，至死靡他。
