-that duet, which my young friend used to play years ago. Is it
not so?"
I could not answer, for as she ceased speaking and gently folded her
hands, I saw upon her hand a ring. She wore it on her little
finger--the ring which she had given me and I had given her. Thoughts
came too fast for utterance, and I seated myself at the piano and
played. When I had done, I turned around and said: "Would one could

spring morning. I had seen at the first glance what she was and how
she felt, and we had greeted and recognized one another. And my good
angel in me, she answered me no more. She was gone and I felt there
was no place on earth where I should
