"Let me take of you, my own girl," he said, "I won't bother you to
try to love me. Please God, that will come in time."
"Yes, please take care of poor me, poor wicked, stupid me," she
whispered, "you're such a good man. I'm so safe with you. There's
nobody in all the world I'd trust like you, Perrin."
He drew her head down to his breast, and the still evening breathed
a benediction over the woman who had sinned and suffered and over
the man who had loved her throughout with a tender reverence which
is the very heart of the divinest love.
THE END.
