“If there is any fruitless mental torment which is greater than that of jealousy it is perhaps remorse. Even the pains of loss may be less searching; and often of course these agonies combine, as now they did for me. I say remorse not repentance.

Remorse contains guilt, but helpless hopeless guilt which knows of no cure for the painful bite.”
