Before Tom had gone to Greece he had been engaged to an English girl. Now Tom explained to Liana that he had not yet had the courage to break off his engagement with his English fiancee.

That being the case, I am afraid they will have to put up with what I have to say, even if they find it offensive or tinged with error. I shall, of course, be glad to hear from dissenters either after class or at a later time during my office hours.
