But he didn't last good. He was awful broke up when the end came. Bless his heart. But you bet I kissed the hurt place and made it well. How about him now? Jeff, I'm darned if I can tell except he's right again. When he got here he was some heart-broke and some mad and some set up on account of things he hears about himself. I guess he's that way still, except I mended the heart-break.
By some accident the Red Cross nurse remembered this photograph and decided to show it to the Belgian woman who had passed so swiftly from abundance and happiness to the utmost of poverty and heart-break. Almost unwillingly at first the woman looked at the print. A moment later she held the picture out at arm's length, rose to her feet, then drew it to her lips and hugged it to her breast.
And no instinct warned me that I should never look upon him again in this world! Lord, what a world of heart-break it is. The doctors said we must take the child away, if we would coax her back to health and strength again. And she must have sea-air.
For the surer advancement of our argument, let us say that it was. What follows? Let the inscription of this label speak for us. They met; they loved as was natural when we remember the youth and good looks of both, and they parted. This we must concede, or how could the experience have been one she could not recall without a heart-break.
The pathos, too, is more genuine; for it is not based upon the mere utterance of grief or of entreaty, which the eloquent and the artful may, indeed, feign, but it is found in that skilful combination of material circumstance and spiritual influence which impresses upon the feeling, more than it proves to the reason, that the hour of heart-break is at hand, and which depends less for its effect upon the dramatic power of the imagination than upon the instant sympathy of the soul.

There was a toy horse and wagon, a top, a ball, memorials gathered with many a tear and many a heart-break!

You must keep your mind amused you must, indeed." "Oh, miserable me!" "Don't! There's just pure heart-break in that tone. It's just as I say; you've got to get right down to it and amuse your mind, as if it was salvation."

There is much for you to do of the very highest work God's work; and then at the end we shall meet all the happier because of the heart-break now." But beyond the shadow that was drawing nearer, Shenac's eyes saw nothing, and she thought indeed that her heart was breaking dying with the sharpness of the pain.
