14/52 Presently you'll be livin' down here in a hovel, en' presently Jane Withersteen will be a memory. I only wanted to have a chance to show you how a man--any man--can be better 'n he was.

'Pears to me that you've thrown away your big heart on love--love of religion an' duty an' churchmen, an' riders an' poor families an' poor children! Yet you can't see what love is--how it changes a person!... |
