And the horror that tore them apart;

When one was love’s slayer, but one

Made a grave for the love in his heart.

The long years pass’d weary and lone

And it lay there and changed there unknown;

Then one day from its innermost place,

In the shamed and ruin’d love’s stead,

Love arose with a glorified face,

Like an angel that comes from the dead.

It uplifted the stone that was set
