The Letter
One grows weary of everything, my angel.
It is the law of nature, it is not my fault.
If for example I had as much love as you have virtue,
and that is surely saying a lot,
is it not astonishing that we should end at
the same time as the other ?
It is not my fault.
From this,
it follows that for some time I have been deceiving you.
But then, your pitiless affection forced me as it were
to do so.
It is not my fault.
Today, a woman I love madly insists that I sacrifice you
to her.
It is not my fault.

I realise that this is a fine opportunity for crying out
on perjury, but if nature's only given men assurance,
or if she gave women obstinacy, it is not my fault.
Take my advice: choose another lover,
as I have chosen another mistress.
This is good advice.
Very good.
If you think it bad, it is not my fault.
Farewell, my angel, I took you with pleasure,
I abandon you without regret.
Perhaps I will come back, to you.
So goes the world, it is not my fault.
