It’s 1733, I’m currently 39
years old and I have met a really nice woman, Emilie. She is 28, and is living the
life of an upper class Parisian woman of society. The moment we met, we both
felt an instant attraction to each other. We certainly knew of each other
before our first meeting due to fact we have mutual friends and acquaintances.
Emilie has read Voltaire's work, attended my plays and is fond of the theater. "Everything
about her is noble, her countenance, her tastes, the style of her letters, her
discourses, and her politeness. … Her conversation is agreeable and
interesting." We have a lot to say to each other always. "I have
finally found a young woman who thinks as I do." Together we’ve studied
the natural sciences and I’ve decided to try and spend many years in the
country, “cultivating her mind." Well guys lets just leave it at that for
now because she’s taken the words out of my mouth and has me in love.
