The man longed for the life of other men, while the woman gloried in her shame, And the man cast her off, a broken toy, a withered rose of yesterday. He had sown his wild oats, had his fling, and was now ready to make his peace with society, and the woman was in his way. He left her. It is mercifully given to few hearts to break with the agony and despair of poor, dead Lorraine LeMoin, Her whole world came down rushing, crashing around her, fact after fact beating into her frenzied brain. Her soul cried out that it was a tie, faise, impossible, incredible, but her eyes and her ears told her she was loved no more. Body and soul she had offered on the shrine of love; now the flame was out, and naught remained but the ashes. And hope, that endures with life, even hope left her.
