The following quote is from An Echo in the Bone by Diana Gabaldon, chapter 67, “Greasier Than Grease.” Copyright©️ 2009 by Diana Gabaldon, all rights reserved.

“Rachel stood stock-still for a moment, listening to the pounding of her heart. Another regular sound began to intrude, a soft lapping noise, and she looked down, blinking, to see that Rollo had tidily polished off the last of the goose grease from the tin she had dropped and was now licking the empty tin.
‘Oh, Lord,’ she said, and put a hand over her mouth, afraid that if she laughed, it would erupt into hysterics. The dog looked up at her, his eyes yellow in the candlelight. He licked his lips, long tail waving gently.
‘What am I to do?’ she asked him. ‘Well enough for thee; thee can chase about after him all day, and share his bed at night, and not a word said.’”

[> [> I agree, Janet. Times were so different. Both of them holding and anticipating their passion and love for each other. Even though their “worldly” aspects are totally different, they’re soul mates. -- Kathy in PA, Sun, July 16 2023, 2:30:41
