Dear Ms. Honeymede,
Would you like to a company me to the circus this weekend at 8 o'clock P.M. on Sunday the Twenty-Sixth? It is performing with mutt elephunts and there will be cotton candy.
[Swann answers in the same way he asked, with a monogrammed notecard in a gold envelope. Her handwriting is all loops and curls, very girly and precious.]
Dear Mr. Sartoris,
I would be delighted to join you at the circus this weekend. It sounds like a lovely evening! I will have a car pick us up at 7:30 P.M., if you have no objections.
[Bayard's next letter is equally labored, but much shorter. It also comes with a little trinket that he found that he thought Swann would like - nothing expensive or even special, but to Bayard even the smallest miracles of technology are wonders, and so he leaves a tacky cut-plastic brooch with a big fake jewel in the middle from a vending machine.]
