Relenting Florence had need of help.
Foh-Kyung, a green-and-gold god in each hand, stopped and turned. His eyes smiled at Dong-Yung. She was so little and so precious and so afraid! Dong-Yung saw the look of relenting.

Fleet, fleet we fly, pursuing The Love that fled amain, But will he list our wooing, Or call we but in vain?
