Excerpt from Wives in Exile: A Comedy in Romance
To have a bright fire and an adjacent mirror; that, certainly, is to have opened at least the first seal of enjoyment. The second is already broken when one can look into the mirror and see oneself at one's best, touched with that remote grace which is so seduc tively obvious ih pools and shallows and mirrors, and so apt to prove evasive in the hand-glass. Yet another seal is broken when we can view, beside Ideala. The form and features, and answering eyes of one who is as blithe to the mind as she, or he, is dear to the heart.
