[Love Eternal by H. Rider Haggard]@TWC D-Link bookLove Eternal CHAPTER VI 20/34

Meanwhile, through you, and because of you, she can tell us much.
You are the wire which connects us to her in the Unseen." "Then I hope you will find another wire; I really do, for it upsets me and makes me feel ill.
I know that I shall be afraid to go to bed to-night, and even for you, Miss Ogilvy, I won't come next Sunday."

This note she answered by post, telling him that she had been disappointed not to see him as she was also ill.
