"Thy love / Shall chant itself its own beatitudes, / After its own life wailing. A child kiss, / Set on thy sighing lips, shall make thee glad; / A poor man, served by thee, shall make thee rich; / A rich man, helped by thee, shall make thee strong. / Thou shalt be served thyself by every sense / Of service which thou renderest. " -- _E. B. Browning._
On her next visit, which was to be her last before they started for / Hepshaw, Mr. Calcott received Queenie with more than his usual / acrimony.
