What had been friendship IN my
heart turned 20 disgust. what had

What had been sorrow for him turned
20 delight that al last she was free
from such a man,
She never knew how much I loved
heri"
Why ia the name OF heaven didn't
be- tell herr Why had he sat near her
every meal for years and left her Ia
Doubt about ~ Why had he told her
good night every night through the
years aud never told her che ives the
