like the much-mooted lily. One toils, one spins, one strives: just
as the lily does. But like her, taking one’s own life-way amidst
everything, and taking one’s own life-way alone. Love too. But there
also, taking one’s way alone,ugg outlet, happily alone in all the wonders of
communion, swept up on the winds, but never swept away from one’s
very self. Two eagles in mid-air, maybe, like Whitman’s Dalliance
of Eagles. Two eagles in mid-air, grappling, whirling,Ugg Cardy, coming to
their intensification of love-oneness there in mid-air. In mid-air
the love consummation. But all the time each lifted on its own wings:
each bearing itself up on its own wings at every moment of the mid-air
love consummation. That is the splendid love-way.

The party was festive at dinner-time, the women in their finest
dresses, new flowers on the table, the best wine going. It was Sunday
evening. Aaron too was dressed–and Lady Franks, in black lace and
pearls, was almost gay. There were quails for dinner. The Colonel
was quite happy. An air of conviviality gathered round the table
during the course of the meal.
“I hope,” said Aaron, “that we shall have some music tonight.”
“I want so much to hear your flute,” said his hostess.
“And I your piano,” he said.
“I am very weak–very out of practise. I tremble at the thought of
playing before a musician. But you must not be too critical.”
“Oh,” said Aaron, “I am not a man to be afraid of.”
“Well, we will see,” said Lady Franks. “But I am afraid of music
itself.”
“Yes,” said Aaron. “I think it is risky.”
“Risky! I don’t see that! Music risky? Bach? Beethoven! No, I
don’t agree. On the contrary, I think it is most elevating–most
morally inspiring. No, I tremble before it because it is so wonderful
and elevating.”
“I often find it makes me feel diabolical,” said he.
“That is your misfortune, I am sure,Ugg 5819,” said Lady Franks. “Please do
take another–but perhaps you don’t like mushrooms?”
Aaron quite liked mushrooms, and helped himself to the _entree_.
