Behold, the LORD will cast her out, and he will smite her power in the sea; and she shall be devoured with fire.

Those words out of the Bible did it: 'If any man smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. Emilie told me that text one day, and I said I did'nt think I could ever do that, but I was helped somehow; but come, Edith, let us go and see Emilie Schomberg, I have'nt seen her since all this happened, though you have. How beautifully you keep my cages Edith!
