No. 20.
To the Empress, at the Elysée-Napoleon.
February 19, 1810.
My Dear,—I have received your letter. I long to see you, but the reflections that you make may be true. It is, perhaps, not desirable that we should be under the same roof for the first year. Yet Bessières' country-house is too far off to go and return in one day; moreover I have rather a cold, and am not sure of being able to go there.
Adieu, dear.
