A Man Will Always Promise

He Promised Her That He Would Give Her Everything, Everything She Wanted, As Men In Love Always Do. And She Trusted Him Despite Herself, As Women In Love Always Do.

A Man Will Always Promise To Do More Than He Can Do To A Woman He Cannot Understand.

But I Don't Forget And I Don't Forgive.

Take Care With Your Words, Jacquetta, Especially In Cursing. Only Say The Things You Mean, Make Sure You Lay Your Curse On The Right Man. For Be Very Sure That When You Put Such Words Out In The World They Can Overshoot-like An Arrow, A Curse Can Go Beyond Your Target And Harm Another. A Wise Woman Curses Very Sparingly.
