positively radiant, and / then and there

If a woman is pretty enough she can
have nine out of every ten men she meets,
and II she isn't pretty. enough she always

Probably a woman is most ideally beau

May catch a faint. sweet. tender, joyous
| strain,
The far off echoing of the bells of
| Heaven.
