They loved her O God, how they loved her! with that intense, breathless, intoxicating love of a multitude which, though it may stone to-morrow what it adores to-day, has yet for those on whom it has once been given thus a power no other love can know a passion unutterably sad, deliriously strong. That passion moved her strangely.
