_Roger's Letter to Mabel._
Farewell! I shall never again seek your side; / I will stay with my sins and leave you with your pride. / Let the swift flame of scorn dry the tears of regret, / Shut me out of your life, lock the door and forget. / I shall pass from your skies as a vagabond star / Passes out of the great solar system afar / Into blackness and gloom; while the heavens smile on, / Scarce knowing the poor erring creature is gone. / Say a prayer for the soul sunk in sinning; I die / To you, and to all who have known me. Good-bye.
