I Dedicate This Book To MY MOTHER
AS A VERY SMALL TOKEN OF THAT LOVE WHICH NO WORDS CAN EXPRESS
"Love is indestructible: Its holy flame for ever burneth, From Heaven it came, to Heaven returneth; Too oft on Earth a troubled guest, At times deceived, at times opprest, It here is tried and purified, Then hath in Heaven its perfect rest: It soweth here with toil and care, Bat the harvest-time of Love is there."
The Curse of Kehama—Robert Southey.
