"One thing is sure: you cannot be his wife."
"Will, I am just like you! I love you better than my life!"
"Sweetheart! Then I have won the prize! I thought that I had won the prize! Will you forgive me my presumption in that I thought that I had won the prize?"
"You should not have kept me so long waiting. It is your fault that I have sinned."
"You shall not have cause again to esteem me false; and observe, fair maid, I had a higher estimate of you."
"Willy! That is unkind!"
Then she turned her face up to his, and when he saw that sweet face upturned and those sweet eyes, what could he do but kiss, not once nor twice, but many times, those sweetest lips? And by this time the two were close together. He had his arm about her waist and pressed her to his breast.
"Do you know that, from my point of view, fair queen, this was worth waiting for?"
"And do you know, sir, that is my point of view as well?"
Then there was silence, and they feasted on the love that was in each other's eyes.
