Sadly she told him what had happened, and horror-stricken, he recoiled from her. And that moment he decided to go away. When he told her he was going west, that he would soon return to her, she clung to him. He comforted her with deceit, and went out of the house, putting her out of his life. Out west, in a bar-room, café and gay temple of revelry, he amused himself with the travesty and parody of love, nor did hear the longing, lonesome sob, nor feel the throb of the girl's eager, yearning dreams. She was forgotten. She asked for letters from him, and the mother, reluctant to impart the miserable truth, gave her sheets of paper as white as the lie they expressed. She pressed them to her lips and to her heart. Then, they heard of a surgeon who was having wonderful success in restoring sight to the blind. The operation was successful. She opened her eyes, and saw, saw the things of earth and their deception, saw the lie of her love and the mockery of its message, and again they sought the unknowing darkness and shut out the sights and sins of the world, a broken human heart gone to its refuge!
