GR: But he's so wracked with guilt Written by joe m (9/15/2003 11:46 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, GR: Tell us what you *really * think ;-), penned by Barbara

] It still amazes me, though, that this speech of Willoughby's has the power to soften peoples' opinion of him and make them pity him.

How can a person not feel sorry for a man who "approached her with a sense of guilt that almost took from [him] the power of dissembling."? (-;

His guilt must have been weighing heavily on him indeed! To almost lose the power of dissembling. What agonies he must have been suffering. (-;
