Verily I was co-partner in her charm.

Half of it was my own man's life in me that leapt and met her wide-armed and made in me all that she was desirable plus all my desire of her.
Miriam was a grand woman.

I use the term advisedly.

She was fine-bodied, commanding, over and above the average Jewish woman in stature and in line.

She was an aristocrat in social caste; she was an aristocrat by nature.
