Some day I shall begin to tell you what [underlined] you [end underlining] have done for [underlined] me [end underlining]! I suppose you know me well enough however to guess that at the idea of your letter being [underlined] published [end italics] I am overcome by feelings of really awful - shyness, I suppose it is.'
