writing to you that, if you wil. allow me, I wa. come to Mrs. Tagore & yourself as soon as the Swami had started. Little did I think that before I shd. have written, my own fate wil. have been reversed | I am really not at all happy to be going away from India — even for a little while— and long talks with yourself on all sorts of delightful things are amongst the many disappointments of the change of plan. Besides, I really wanted to add a new friend to those with which India has already blessed me, and you are so dear to my friend Dr. Bose, that I cq. not help hoping you să, be my friend too ! But I hope that the greatest ends may be better served by my going than by my staying— & if that is so I know that you will feel with me that personal considerations simply do not count. My Au Revoir includes a great many wishes for your good health & happiness until we meet again. Please give my kind regards and respects to Mrs. Tagore & my love to your charming children. And believe me dear Mr. Tagore Sincerely Yours, Nivedita Ꮍ 8N%
