Excerpt from Love in the Weaving The lights in the studio burned low. Each can dle gave forth little restless, tired, jerking flickers, as if the effort of brightening the long shadowy room had wearied it. Is it not always a struggle to bring the light into the gloom? There were pictures everywhere. But one, only, seemed to fill the place with its presence. It hung in the very end of the room, far away from the win dows, in a niche made by a deep recess in the wall. It was a picture of a woman reclining upon a wide, fur-covered couch. The beauty of her bared bosom was half exposed as she lay with her arm beneath her head. Her eyes were filled with the great mother-love Of her being, a new rapture, partially veiled in a cloudy haze, the wonder of the artist's brush, seemed to float beneath her vision. At the foot of the couch knelt the figure Of a man, and upon his face the light Of a great love was aglow. It was a wonderful picture - all of life shaded upon a canvas not four feet square. It was love, face to face with the joy of its passion. You could almost see the hearts a-quiver, and feel the great ebb and flow of the love-tide that had swept them into one.
