Summary
Explaining that her messenger left before he could finish writing a letter to her; suggesting that he may come see her this evening to give her some assurance of his tenderness for her, but noting that he might not be able to come because he is very busy; telling her that he hasn't responded to parts of her letter for that same reason; saying he loves her.
