Scene from The Woodlanders
Language:
English
"Now, my own, own love," she whispered, "you are mine,
and only mine; for she has forgot 'ee at last,
although for her you died.
But I -- whenever I get up I'll think of 'ee,
and whenever I lie down I'll think of 'ee.
Whenever I plant the young larches I'll think
that none can plant as you planted;
and whenever I split a gad,
and whenever I turn the cider-wring,
I'll say none could do it like you.
If ever I forget your name, let me forget home and heaven!...
But no, no, my love, I never can forget 'ee;
for you was a good man, and did good things!"
