I'm not sure you can call it "love, pure and true" when he pretty much raped her. He's been lying to her about who and what she is. She can't really consent about what she's doing, because he's not being honest about...well, anything. It's creepy, is what it is!

Also, I totally missed that the story that John Clare told Lily actually happened with Dorian and Angelique. Good job connecting the two!
