Two
years ago today, February 15th, 1909, I escaped from East Bergholt
Abbey, to resume a life of freedom in the world. It might be asked now, after the lapse of two years, with what
feelings do I regard the grave step of leaving the Abbey and breaking the
lifelong vows I had taken. I can only
answer that what I did then I in no wise regret, save that I ought to have
ended it sooner, instead of enduring for seven years a life upon which I cannot
look back even now without shuddering.
Could I go back again to that February day, two years ago, my action
would be precisely the same, and oh! how I wish with all my heart that the many
other unhappy nuns, wherever situated, could have the fortunate opportunity
that I had, and the courage, to escape.
