And then, because Camden was a bit of a sentimentalist with a good deal of superstition tangled in his make-up, he took Truedale's play out of his pocket it had been spoiling the set of his coat all the evening and spread it out on the table that was cleared now of all but the coffee and the cigarettes which the angel-woman Camden did not smoke was puffing luxuriously.
You are a an angel-woman, but you can play a she-devil like an inspired creature. You don't mean that you seriously contemplate ruining my reputation and your own by " "I mean," said the angel-woman, sipping her sauterne, "that I don't care a flip for your reputation or mine the weather's too hot but I'm not going to trail through another slimy play! No; I'll go into the movies first!"
An angel-woman spoke to me and said, 'This is the Lord's Supper; appropriate to thyself the goods and truths of His heavenly kingdom. While she thus spoke, I saw thee, dear Gotleib, approach, with such a smiling and beautiful grace, and thou saidst to me, holding my hand 'Sweet one! how bright thou art!
I dreamed that I was in a quite heavenly place yet the place was as nothing it was the state for I sat with an infant in my arms a bright innocent little one and, thou, dearest Gotleib, knelt beside me; and an angel-woman stood near us, in a soft heavenly glory, and said, in low musical, spirit-words 'Behold the fruit of the union of good and truth. And then, methought, thou didst embrace me with a new joy of love, and whispered, 'an angel of God is born of us. This little one is the dream-child, dear Gotleib."
Her sister perfectly realises this, for she has the prettiest names for her. 'That angel-woman, I have heard her say that; very often she calls her 'das Engelkind; and without exaggeration she has a rare and beautiful nature." Malcolm assented to this, then he said slowly, "Has it ever struck you that there are no lines on Miss Templeton's face? I should think her life-story must be a happy one.
Above all, the women heard him gladly; and to this sure sign of a future Theophilus was far from blind. "He has women at his back, he cannot fail," was a phrase he sometimes recalled out of his favourite Brand. Yes, and had he not one little angel-woman at his side? It had been the spring of 1886 when he came to New Zion.
"And yet, no; you are the angel-woman; there will always be a greater charm in the expression of your feelings, more harmony in your voice, more grace in your smile, more purity in your looks than in mine.
Truedale's play was pushed across the table and the angel-woman seized upon it. The taste Camden had given her like caviar sharpened her appetite. She read on in the swift, skipping fashion that would have crushed an author's hopes, but which grasped the high lights and caught the deep tones. Then the woman looked up and there were genuine tears in her eyes.
"How like my Marian?" would often be the language of his heart, when hearing of her deeds. "Even so would my Marian have done had she been born to fortune, as this lady was." The name was certainly common enough, yet the similarity of both names and natures inclined him to the opinion that this angel-woman must be some distant and more fortunate relative of his own lost Marian.
For the second time that evening Edward Henry was dashed. "Have you been meddling with my music rolls?" "No, father. I only read the labels." This child simply read everything. "How did you know I was playing a funeral march?" Edward Henry demanded. "Oh, I didn't tell him!" Nellie put in, excusing herself before she was accused. She smiled benignly, as an angel-woman, capable of forgiving all.
