"I see the whole world through your tresses, Holly! They cover my eyes / as a veil and everything glows, shines with glory! " Rodney had said to / Cis.
It was true of them both that a joy past realization, past expression, / filled and flooded their ways and their days. Cicely gave herself up to / the rapture of a love so mighty that it was almost pain; gave herself / with the generosity of a nature honest, fearless, intense. Rodney / found her love for him far exceeding his expectation of it, and he had / expected to be endowed beyond the average man by the love of a woman / who, more than any that he had ever known, asked nothing for herself / but to be allowed to submerge herself.
