The Sun, the creator of the universe, giver of light, heat, and life, and reverenced by every one, is often called Old Man, but there is another personality who bears the same name, but who is very different in his character.

Lifting the pot from its crook, she lays it on the earthen floor.,"Maurice! Maurice! Where is he?" she cried, leaving the major and rushing toward the empty bed.
