Mary Johnston brother feelings animal All things die not: while the soul lives, love lives: the song may be now gay, now plaintive, but it is deathless. Mary Johnston love-life gay song She was coming. I watched the slight figure grow out of the dusk between the trees, and the darkness in which I had walked of late fell away. The wood that had been so gloomy was a place of sunlight and song; had red roses sprung up around me I had felt no wonder.
