"What have I done to deserve this?"
He managed to respond:
"You deserve more, perhaps—a worldful of blessings. But this release is all that I have to give you."
"Do you think I care for that man? I even hate him now, if it's he who has brought you to this."
He looked like a soul that sees an angel hovering on the threshold of hell, promising salvation.
"Oh, if I could believe you!"
And all the propulsions that had brought this moment to pass now forced from her lips:
"I am here to prove it in a way that you can never doubt."
That day, at twilight, she standing beside his bed, they were married.
