Description
Even though Casals has gotten little sleep, he still feels calm and refreshed. He is remembering their time together in the past, Metcalfe's house in New Rochelle, as if it were the present. He wonders whether she will meet him when his ship arrives in New York. Perhaps her family would prefer that he visit them first. "You know that I know nothing of the formulas of life... You will warn your family as nicely as possible of my ignorance in these matters." His mother wrote to him that she is planning a trip from Barcelona to their former home so that she can retrieve the letter that Susan wrote to her ten years before, which she remembered with fondness.
