Ungrateful! A discarded Jane Austen Book

I won a gift of Jane Austen's complete works, which was bought in a second hand book store. The book is wonderful, but what caught my attention was the dedication of love on the first page. The lovely words must not have touched the book's recipient, for shortly after receiving the gift that person sold the book to a second hand book store, where a friend of mine bought it.
Poor boy... I hope the author of so loving a dedication will have a beautiful life and forget this ungrateful creature!
