Still at the face Of the speaker, her
arms up1ifted in horror;
But John Alden, upstarting, as If the
barb OF the arrow
Piercing the heart of his friend had
struck his own, and had sundered
Once and forever the bonds that held
him bound as captive,
Wild with excess OF sensation, the
awful delight Of his freedom,
Mingled with pain and regret, uncon-
scious Of what he was doing,
Clasped, almost with groan, the
motionless form Of Priscilla,
Pressing her close to his. heart, as for
ever his own. and exclaiming:
Those whom the Lord hath united.
let no man put them asunder!"
Even as rivulets twain. from distant
and separate sources,
Seeing each other afar, as they leap
from the rocks, and pursuing
Each one its devious path, but draw
ing nearer and nearer,
Rush together at last, at their tryst-
ing-place In the forest:
SO these lives that had run thus Tar
in separate channels.
Coming in sight Of each other, then
swerving and flowing asunder.
Parted by barriers strong, but draw
Ing nearer and nearer,
Rushed together at last, and one was
lost in the other.
