She had been afraid of it then, and she had run away from his good-bye that snowy day when he had left Algonquin. For then she had not wanted to see that look in the eyes of any man. She had seen it once before and had yielded to its spell, and the love-light had died out and left her life desolate.
Quickly, however, she came forward and took me by the hand, looking up at me with the love-light making her eyes glorious. "Hugo," she said, "I am glad you are here glad that I am to die by no less loving hand. That will be sweeter than to live with any other. And, indeed, I deserve so much, for I have not known much joy in my life, save in the old days when I was your Little Playmate."
Even that community of superlative sorrow had its love-light to make life endurable and attractive. Distance softened without entirely veiling the misery of the outcasts. From her seat by the well Amrah kept watch upon the spectral groups. She scarcely moved. More than once she imagined she saw those she sought.
I have no false shame no misgivings. I shall speak the truth of myself and you, and your father will hear me." Irene listened with the love-light in her hazel eyes; the face she turned upon him brought back a ray of sunshine to the slowly shadowing glen. "I will think till to-morrow," she said. "Come to the Castle to-morrow morning, and I shall have settled many things.
It was to be seen in the glance of the eye, in the voice a little unsteady, in girlish over-emphasis, in that shining something in the face, which, in Ireland, they call the love-light. So great was Mrs. Guise's vanity, so intense her content in her son, so proud was she of other people's admiration of him, no matter who they were, that she welcomed Louise's attentions. Kernaghan was wrong.
Happy the man who shall wed ye, my dark, beautiful maid. And strong must he be, aye, and masterful he who shall wake the love-light in those dark, great, passionate eyes of yours. And there is no man in all this world can do it but he must be a golden man wi' the Tiger-mark upon him." "Why oh Nannie !"
The few minutes' silence was broken by Hugh, who hoarsely asked: "Will you give me your promise, Dexie?" "No, I will not!" "But you shall! I swear it! Do you think I am not in earnest?" and the love-light in his eyes was dimmed by a harder and fiercer look. "You will return home my promised wife, or not at all!" They had drifted on and on.
They caught up Griselda's royal robes with great clasps of gold set with gems, and put a crown on her beautiful hair. She came out and stood in the low doorway, where she had so often stood before. But now the people scarcely knew her: she looked so fair in her new robes and with the love-light shining in her eyes. Lord Walter did not wait till he reached the castle.
How beautiful the love-light in his eyes is ah, dear me, it reminds me of the time when I was young, and Bell used to go on his knees to me Bell hadn't eyes like Captain Bertram though. Dear, dear, he is attentive, poor man, and how close he bends over Matty. I'll help him, so I will. I'll take Beatrice and the other girls away when once we get out of the boat.
"I don't know, Frank, I can try," she said, demurely; looking up at me with her deep, grey eyes, which, now suffused with a tender love-light, had a greater charm for me than ever. I felt as if I were walking on air! After a little pause, during which we both walked on slowly, I too happy to speak, Min squeezed my arm.
