第15章 LIFE'S GIFTS

I saw a woman sleeping.In her sleep she dreamt Life stood before her, and held in each hand a gift--in the one Love, in the other Freedom.And she said to the woman, "Choose!"And the woman waited long: and she said, "Freedom!"And Life said, "Thou hast well chosen.If thou hadst said, 'Love,' I would have given thee that thou didst ask for; and I would have gone from thee, and returned to thee no more.Now, the day will come when I shall return.

In that day I shall bear both gifts in one hand."I heard the woman laugh in her sleep.
