So the wedding-day was fixed, and
in Leah's future there did not seem
TO be one cloud. Any one, on hearing
of what awaited her. would have
pronounced her to be one of the
happiest girls on whom the sun
shone. Beauty, riches, honor, love
every gift with which life and fortune
can crown their favorites was hers.
There were times when she forgot
all her troubles, both past and
present, when the faint shadows died,
and the sun of her love and happiness
shone out in full and perfect day;
then again the clouds of doubt
gathered, and her disturbing fancies
took tangible shape.
But in April, with the snowdrops
and violets. with the springing leaves
and the song of the birds, would
come her wedding-day, she said To
herself. Sir Basil must love her, or
he would not ask her to be his wife.
He was not marrying her for beauty;
he had seen fairer women. 1t was
not for her wealth; he was rich
enough himself. 1t could be fer
nothing but love. To her own heart
she said that she would be happy;
she would trample under foot ali her
fanoies and thoughts, vague ideas
that knew no FORM" and give herself
up 10 happiness which should have
in ii no alloy.
A week later Sir Basil drove over
to Brentwood to consult Leah about
the colors and decorations for he>
boudoir. In every detail he showed
the strongest desire to please her.
What he did ont give her in devoted
or passionate love. he gave her in
unremitting attention.
