Betty's mother in the house was the grand lady beautiful to look upon the piece of bronze, or picture, that went with the house; but Miss Stone was Betty's own the little grey voice, a bit of heart-love, and something common and precious. They came down the long rooms together, the child's hand resting lightly in hers, and her steps dancing a little in happy play. She had not heard the man's name.
He is such a jolly, happy boy now, filling every heart and the whole house with his sunshine. How I love the little fellow. When I am here at his home, he always comes to Auntie for love and tenderness. When I am resting on the lounge, he comes every few moments to kiss me, giving and receiving real heart-love. We know God only lends these little treasures to their human friends.
Next a hymn was sung relating to community life, which I copy here as a curiosity: "Let us sing, brothers, sing, In the Eden of heart-love Where the fruits of life spring, And no death e'er can part love; Where the pure currents flow From all gushing hearts together, And the wedding of the Lamb Is the feast of joy forever. Let us sing, brothers, sing.
She did everything for him, watched out for his comfort, but he was nothing to her. She lacked the most important thing heart-love. As she spoke she looked up, with a longing idealism that would have made anyone but Renovales smile. "In this situation," she said slowly, looking into space, "it isn't strange that a woman seeks happiness where she can find it.
"You were inaccessible excepting to that brain-love which often leads to heart-love; and not one of those men, it is very certain, is capable of disguising what, at an early stage of life, is disgusting to the senses in the eyes of a refined woman. To you, now, love is indispensable." "Indispensable!" cried Dinah, looking curiously at the doctor. "Do you mean that you prescribe love to me?"
Long before we parted, however, in January, 1870, I feel certain that all had come to have not only a profound respect, but also a real heart-love for "dear old Gillie"!
But when he beheld her in reality, so different from the being his memory-dreams had lingered over, his passion received a sudden check. When he beheld her pallid cheek, there was no heart-love to tell him it was grief for him which had hollowed and blanched her beauteous face.
Professor Featherwit deemed it his duty to gravely reprove his wards for their rash conduct, yet something in his twinkling eyes and in the kindly touch of his bony hand told a far different tale. His anger took the shape of pride and of heart-love.
The heroism of men towards a man, the uncalculating devotion and magnificent self- sacrifice of which the poorest human soul is capable when touched to fine issues by some heart-love, are surely not all meant to be lavished on fellow-creatures, who, alas! generally receive the most of them. But these rude Philistines and Gittites, Goliath's fellow-townsmen, may preach to us Christians a lesson.
