The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Letters of Robert Louis Stevenson by Robert Louis Stevenson: I am still far from satisfied about Fanny; she is certainly better,
but it is by fits a good deal, and the symptoms continue, which
should not be. I had her persuaded to leave without me this very
day (Saturday 8th), but the disclosure of my mismanagement broke up
that plan; she would not leave me lest I should mismanage more. I
think this an unfair revenge; but I have been so bothered that I
cannot struggle. All Davos has been drinking our wine. During the
month of March, three litres a day were drunk - O it is too
sickening - and that is only a specimen. It is enough to make any
one a misanthrope, but the right thing is to hate the donkey that
was duped - which I devoutly do.
