e: hermoso dicho de "tan solo eXtin
guiendose de mi vida su dltimo a
liento dejar6 de amarte?" Mas. -.
ia que pensar en- tantas llu'
stones! Abramosla v leamosla; pero
dejadme que antes la bese cual 81
fuera su boca y que la abrace cual 81
fuera SUI cuerpo.
Luego con voz dulce asi ley6:
"Dulce mia: Cada vez que recuer
do aquel dia radiante de hermosura
cuando en- el momento supreme en-
que mutuamente jurabamos MORN
antes que olvidarnos, fui arrojado de
tn lado donde aspiraba tn perfume
embriagador, sufro mucho.
"Cada vez que pienso que el re-
cuerdo santo de este, pasa por tu-
mente como la vision de un sueno
fantastico, sufro mucho. Y este su-
flimiento va tronchando el corto hi
10 que de vida me resta.
Yo necesito un ser que carinosa
derrame sobre mi espiritu algun le-
nitivo, v ese ser, solo tn puedes serlo.
81 es verdad que me amas espero
que vengas esta noche a hablar con-
migo baio las ramas de nuestro buen
amigo Ell roble. Ell amor todo 10 pue-
de. Ali te esperars ansioso de confun
dir nuestras almas". .-Ortosto
