Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Lake of the Woods: A Story of the Backwoods "He does not come back!" mournfully exclaimed Amy Gaveston, turning from the low door-way from which she had anxiously gazed forth into the deepening twilight. "Would that my boy had never gone! No doctor can help me now. The sands have well nigh run out, and no power of man can turn the glass." The voice which uttered those words, faint but clear, was that of a man in the last stage of mortal sickness, who, tenderly wrapt, and softly cushioned, lay stretched on a pallet in the comer of the log-hut. No stranger could have looked upon his countenance and have doubted that the stamp of death was upon those pale chiselled features, calm in suffering; the violet tint beneath the clear glassy eyes was as the mark left by death´s touch. "Oh! father, do not speak thus!" exclaimed Amy, sinking on her knees on the rudely planked floor by his side. "You will get better, - you have less pain."
