But with the morning, the
glorious unstained morning the passion of living would stir even the blood of a
clod. Not a moment is to be lost. I wanted the time with you. “You are very kind,” she said hesitatingly, “but I don’t remember—I don’t think
that I know you, do I?”
“I am afraid that you do not,” he admitted, with a smile which he meant to be
encouraging. She was perplexed by this, and stood for some seconds in
the empty street hesitating, until the appearance of another circumspect woman
under the street lamp at the corner reassured her. When I have traversed the streets a houseless wanderer,
driven with curses from every door where I have solicited alms, and with blows
from every gateway where I have sought shelter,—when I have crept into some
deserted building, and stretched my wearied limbs upon a bulk, in the vain hope
of repose,—or, worse than all, when, frenzied with want, I have yielded to
horrible temptation, and earned a meal in the only way I could earn one,—when
I have felt, at times like these, my heart sink within me, I have drank of this
drink, and have at once forgotten my cares, my poverty, my guilt. The thief-taker's throat
was bound up with thick folds of linen, and his face had a ghastly and
cadaverous look, which communicated an undefinable and horrible expression to
his glances. This path, bordered on
each side by high privet hedges of the most beautiful green, soon brought them
to a stile. We were properly married, and the certificate

swift glance at it, and her eyes, flashing magnificently, came back to his face. “Why on earth did you TELL me?” he cried. I’ve been smoking cigarettes in the preparation-room
and thinking this out.
