That was final proof of the strength of nature to soothe, to clarify, to stabilize the tried and weary and upward-gazing soul.

Then last stirring him even as he tried to clarify and arrange this magic, this mystery had come the unbelievable, the momentous and dazzling assurance that she loved him.
