you are with me. Every moment you
are with me I worship you more, my

that I love you most passionately
with all the strength of my heart
and mind . . . and when 1 have you
for my husband I will holdi vou fast
with chains of love and devotion so
that you shall never leave me, or
j love anyone as long as I can love
and comfort."
Most fascinating of all Is a letter
of Edgar Allen Poe to a friend,
letter reciting a love deep, moving
and tragic. The letter tells nf t.h
recurring Illnesses of "a wife whom.
