Lady Susan to Mr. De Courcy

Upper Seymour Street.

I am satisfied, and will trouble you no more when these few lines are dismissed. The engagement which you were eager to form a fortnight ago is no longer compatible with your views, and I rejoice to find that the prudent1 advice of your parents has not been given in vain. Your restoration to peace will, I doubt not, speedily follow this act of filial obedience2, and I flatter myself with the hope of surviving my share in this disappointment.
S. V.
