“Evadne, come here.”

She crossed the room and knelt beside his couch.

“Little coz, I have let the Pilgrim in.”

And Evadne buried her face in the cushions with a low cry.  The crown of rejoicing was hers—­at last!

“There is only one thing wanting between you two.”  Louis looked wistfully at John Randolph and Evadne, as they stood beside him, talking brightly of how he should help when he grew strong.

“And what is that?” Doctor Randolph asked the question with a smile.

Louis drew his ring from Evadne’s finger and laid her hand in that of his friend.  “Take her, Randolph, she is worthy of you.  I would not say that of any other woman.”

With a great joy surging in his heart, John Randolph held out his other hand.  She must give herself.  He could not take her from another’s giving.

A lovely shyness flushed into the pure face, their eyes met, and Evadne laid her hand in his without a word.

“Evadne!” The rich, tender tones fell throbbing through the silence, enwrapping the name in a sweet protectiveness.  “Life is—­for us—­to do the will of God!”

THE END.
