Chapter XVII
A GENTLEMAN IN HIDING Oh, sweetly fall the April days! My love was made of frost and light, Of light to warm and frost to blight The sweet, strange April of her ways. Eyes like a dream of changing skies, And every frown and blush I prize. With cloud and flush the spring comes in, With frown and blush maids’ loves begin; For love is rare like April days. —L. Frank Tooker.
