St. George And St. Michael - George Macdonald - Bog

Regarding physical appearance, Richard Heywood was a young man who was already tall and strong. His lovely brown face radiated a wealth of sunshine and fresh air. His hazel eyes had a bright glitter in the center that lightened the shadows under his very thick lids, which were also slightly over-browed. Lord Worcester had developed such a fondness for Dorothy, in part due to the amusement she and her mastiff brought him at first, that he was saddened to learn that she would not be seated at his table but rather at the housekeeper. Caspar started searching for hidden valuables as soon as he learned of Richard's passing.
Although their hands each held the other's hearts, their eyes only briefly met in the flashes of double dawn. For a brief time, Dorothy believed Raglan had been rebuilt; the ruin and the winter had disappeared in front of Richard Branson, the creative pulse of the heart of love. The marquis responded, ""Love outlives all but leasing,"" and her gaze shifted to Richard's. The image vanishes, and the ancient walls rise like a shattered cenotaph. However, the same sky, with its unpredictable clouds, continues to loom above them. And while a man's head or spirit may evolve, his heart never changes.
