Chapter XXIII · PRINCE NAPOLEON The Empress in 1910-11. (continued 2)
Reading edition
The light beats down, the gates of pearl are wide: And she is passing to the floor of peace. And Mary of the seven times wounded heart Has kissed her lips ... the Light of Lights Looks always on the motive, not the deed, The Shadow of Shadows on the deed alone.
The time will come when we shall be able to unveil the whole truth to the world.
I shall continue to hope for a future of truth and of justice.
The Empress Eugénie.
