O Perdão Profundo

Prévia do material em texto

And	that	is	what	he	did.	He	told	her	All;	and	wept	upon	her	bosom;	wept,	and
moaned,	 and	 begged	 for	 her	 forgiveness.	 It	 was	 a	 profound	 shock,	 and	 she
staggered	under	the	blow,	but	he	was	her	own,	the	core	of	her	heart,	the	blessing
of	her	eyes,	her	all	in	all,	she	could	deny	him	nothing,	and	she	forgave	him.	She
felt	that	he	could	never	again	be	quite	to	her	what	he	had	been	before;	she	knew
that	he	could	only	repent,	and	not	reform;	yet	all	morally	defaced	and	decayed	as
he	was,	was	he	not	her	own,	her	very	own,	 the	 idol	of	her	deathless	worship?
She	said	she	was	his	serf,	his	slave,	and	she	opened	her	yearning	heart	and	took
him	in.
