Metaphor in Context
That Raillery, Madam, reply'd Eurimantes, does not suit with the posture my Soul is in at present; and if the sight of the Picture and the Letters, which Tazander took from me, gives you any trouble of mind, you shall find, that I can justifie my self; and to that end, I will acquaint you with what he knew nothing of.
