[The Romance of Zion Chapel [3d ed.] by Richard Le Gallienne]@TWC D-Link bookThe Romance of Zion Chapel [3d ed.] CHAPTER IV 6/6

Well, of course, though it's a little early on to admit it.
However, I am unequal to the task of concealing from the hawk-eyed reader through a succession of chapters that Jenny and Theophil were to be each other's "fates."
