"Found you as I have prayed through lightless days I might, some day, find you, blue-eyed girl with heart of gold; found you with your hope, your loyalty, your tenderness and your forgiveness." "Jest couldn't he? I'll take you down to the marsh some day an' show you how quick he kin kill a womper."
