Dearest Sienna,
Upon reading your latest missive, I could barely contain my mirth and sheer exhilaration~causing my heart to nearly burst with delight! I determined right there and then to hurry from my quarters and run as fast as possible to that paradise where first I gazed upon your fair countenance and wait, minutes... hours?... however long it would take until you arrive. Foolhardy, is it not? But beloved Sienna, you've no idea the affect just a few tender words from from your hand have has had upon me.
Even now as I write, my hand trembles and quill tip scrawls erratically from the excitations of my heart. Know that as you have pledged yourself to me, that I in turn pledge from this day forward, the full measure of my heart's affection and devotion only to you, my beloved Sienna. Perchance we may meet directly after dinner this afternoon? Or simply come when you may thereafter... I shall be there awaiting you.
Affectionately yours, Thomas

Thomas, we should have supper together this very eve if though don't think it a rash or rushed choice? if I could I would find us simple lodgings so that I might get to know you in the early days of this blooming feelings that we have for one another. You have made an impact on my heart tremendously like a part of it is with you. I choose time to explore if we should go further with each other. The words that I wrote you i shall repeat standing in front of you so you know that what I feel for you is real until I am with you carry these written words that come from my heart with you. yours sienna.

Dearest Sienna,
You are as resourceful as you are lovely, supper sounds marvelous! in this brief time, you have captivated my heart. If our love is rash, then let it be so, for how could sentiment so profound be wrong? If affection in haste be shunned~then shun me~ for I refuse to give up that which makes me feel more alive than I have felt in all of my eighteen years!
I suppose I shall find out when we meet in the garden where you've found lodging. For my own part, I shall have to conceive of a tale to tell father why I must go out for the evening. Fear not, for I shall think of one, or else just go and deal with the consequences on the morrow, either way, 'twill be more than worth it to touch your hand once again, my darling. Thus, I await the appointed hour of our meeting with great anticipation.
Affectionately yours, Thomas

I want us to be with each other with no regrets I only regret that I did not meet you sooner Give me an hour to get ready sweetest love and I shall be their awaiting you. I hope that whatever the excuse you shall not be harmed by your farther would he be angry? Until I get to see you I place a kiss under my name yours sienna
