Now and again the road passes through pine forests, still and aromatic, the soil carpeted with leaves, where, if one pauses to listen, there comes a low, undefined murmur of vegetable and insect life, like the sound that greets the ear when applied to an empty sea-shell. Some wood-paths are found sprinkled with dog-violets, saxifrage, and with purple heart's-ease.
The road was fine, with the exception of a few mud-holes, and the woods lovely with wild flowers and dogwood blossoms and with all the fragrance of early spring, the dark holly and pine intermingling with the delicate leaves just brought out by the genial season, daisies, wild violets, and heart's-ease.

"Roses perhaps," said the senator, "and withal some bittersweet, but, better than these, and more, he has left me heart's-ease.
It isn't cold here, is it?" "No, not in the room, Heart's-Ease, but right here," laying his hand upon his heart. The child regarded him questioningly with her big, earnest eyes, and said: "Did it grow cold because mamma went so sound asleep?"
Out of the big gate they went and down the street all aglow with the early evening lights twinkling in the purple shadows. My gratitude to this little country is great, Mate. It has given me much. It was here life taught me her sternest lessons. And here I found the heart's-ease of Jack's love.
