the sand had sifted through the hour glass, sat a man all alone in his
chamber. On his table was the dust of solitariness; and with his finger
he wrote in it "Forever." But he looked fearlessly across the board, for
there sat no grinning demon of temptation, nor remorse, nor fear. But a
fragrance as of lilacs and of sweet clover coming through an open window
was in his nostrils; and in his memory was the picture of a face he
loved, made like unto an angel's with gratitude, and on his forehead
still burned, like a purifying fire, a kiss that reached down into his
soul and filled him with the joy of thankfulness.
