Thus, the latter took as an act of ingratitude, on the part of his brother; and, as a mark of his displeasure, he required him to send me immediately to St. Michael's, saying, if he cannot keep "Hen," he shall not have "Fred." Here was another shock to my nerves, another breaking up of my plans, and another severance of my religious and social alliances. I was now a big boy.
Again Oliver realized grudgingly that whatever Mrs. Severance might be she was certainly not obvious. For "I'm so glad you came then," she was saying with what seemed to be perfect sincerity. "Won't you come in?"
I do not know that she followed out her arguments till she had taught herself that it is the Love that is divine the Love which, when outraged by death or other severance, produces that sorrow which man would control if he were strong enough, but which he cannot control by reason of the weakness of his humanity.

Some of them, we know, already desire peace and reunion.
"I'd never seen a woman like you, you know. I'd been too busy trying to keep alive. But there was this Severance, and oh, well, what's the use?" he muttered again thickly. "You got your money, and I got the woman I loved. Yes, I got her my soul!" he protested; "and it's a pretty trial balance, isn't it, to cast up on a day like this?"
