Excerpt from The Heart of Life, Vol. 2 of 3
Pole had not proposed to Mrs. Steinberg to stay with her for more than a day or two. She was, therefore, hardly surprised, though she was voluble with hospitable remonstrance, when he told her that the following morning he should have to return home. So far as the friend was concerned to whom he had said good-bye, he would gain nothing by remaining at Thames Wickham, and he began to long for the seclusions and the ample solitudes of Glenlynn, where he would henceforth each morning, through the channel of a faithful letter, receive new life from an affection sublimated, not lessened, by distance.
