Judith stood at her desk, looking
upward at the walls. They had

Oh, her appealing sweetness! He

down till his lips were pressed
against her throat-her white. soft
throat. And that radiant laugh
when she murmured: II worship
you! Who could help but love you,
Douglas Keith? Oh, give you up?
I'd rather die-I could easily; oh,
