I think the writer is somewhat of a distant observer. He loves the person he is writing about though. I have no context for assuming the character is a women other than she is referred to as lovely and dear. She can be beautiful, but also dangerous. "Lilacs and land mines". She might not spend enough time listening to others, but sets an idea in her head and keeps it. He says "hear what the evening sees in you" and "just let them [pitches] call you". I think she has a high opinion of herself. jlaurits had a wonderful insight into the comparison to St. Catherine. Being compared to her head is especialy apt. She is head strong. She can have whatever she wants; she is smart enough to do anything she tries to do and she is beautiful. Nothing is wrong with her, but she knows it. The author warns that her pride could lead to her demise. "You can die if you decide". He knows what is right for her but she does not, and he knows it. |
