And she has no rosary.
I thank God for that.
No other man possesses, or has ever possessed, that which I desire more than I ever desired anything upon this earth, Jane's love, Jane's tenderness.
Ah, what will it mean? 'I count each pearl.' She WILL count them some day--her pearls and mine. God spare us the cross.
Must there be a cross to every true rosary? Then God give me the heavy end, and may the mutual bearing of it bind us together.
