Elizabeth’s Letter At The Start Of Chapter 6 Is Fascinating To Me. What Do You Mean “I Figure To

Elizabeth’s letter at the start of chapter 6 is fascinating to me. What do you mean “I figure to myself that the task of attending on your sickbed has devolved on some mercenary old nurse, who could never guess your wishes nor minister to them with the care and affection of your poor cousin.”

Has Henry not told you even a single detail besides just hey victor is a bit sick but he’s getting better don’t worry

Henry this is not what “he spared them this grief by concealing the extent of my disorder.” is supposed to mean. What are you afraid of. Are you afraid they’ll find out you abandoned your studies to take care of your dear Victor. Are you afraid they’ll find out you’re gay. Is that why you’ve omitted every possible detail.
