It is enough that you desire these things to oblige us to take the same interest; but if you had not, we feel ourselves inclined of our own accord and for our own individual satisfaction.

I will take the charge upon myself; only tell me the place and the way to it, and I will defer my journey no longer than till to-morrow."
