5. I went to comfort her. As I got
closer, we began to talk.
6. “You know girl, life is wonderful, but
people don’t want to believe it. They
think for today there is no tomorrow.
They lose their reason. Oh! dearest
girl dry these tears and weep no more.
Don’t roam through the past. The
present should be the time to worry
about. Could you see through this
world’s vale of tears that darkness to
people seems to be light and sunshine
seems to be night. Follow me
cheerfully. Pray and don’t cry.”
7. The girl and I went stroll arms in
arms together as friends.
8. As we walked in the wood, the rain came pouring
down.
9. The little girl chattered all the way:
“How did you come to me sweet
friend from a land no man knew?
Did an angel fly with you down
from the sky? You warmed my
heart with love and happiness.”
