图书描述

The wind sang old songs, as the tale went, and like the wind we<br >too sang; sang "Good Night, Lady" at her doorway on Christmas<br >Eve, but she would not come out. Why, I asked myself, why? Oh<br >Lady, coine out, we love you--I love you. Still, she would not. l<br >couldn t understand then; no one could. I do now.<br > In small towns is there always a Lady Harleigh? I only know there<br >was in ours. She lived in the handsomest house on the Green, a<br >plaque by her front door identifying it as the "Josiah Webster<br >House, Built 17o2." A stranger inquiring who lived there would<br >assuredly have been told there were three occupants only; that is,<br >Lady herself, and her servants, the Grifllns. But of course there were<br >four, because the shade of Lady s dead husband also dwelt there.<br > No one but the mistress of the house was aware of Edward Har-<br >leigh s ghost, but so real was her apprehension, so evident her dis-<br >tress, that even I in time would glance up at a second-story<br >window, almost expecting to see a half-realized presence brooding<br >behind the curtain. But, of course, there were no ghosts in the house<br > on the Green; only in Lady s heart.<br > During most of my boyhood I strove to know the heart of Ade-<br > laide Harleigh, to unravel the enigma that lingered in the corners of<br > her mouth as her smile faded. For ff she was everything to every-<br > body, ff she most often seemed joyful and content, her joy appeared<br > to me something of a disguise. Still, she was Lady, ever Lady, and it<br > is not of ghosts I write, but of love, for though I was only a boy of<br > eight when I first knew her, and she well past forty, I came to love<br > her, as she did me. She loved another also, ff in a more comprehensi-<br > ble but less orthodox way; but I, unaware, had in those early years<br > no eause for jealousy, because of all the children I was her favorite.<br > It is not easy to learn much about love, but one thing I discovered,<br > that Lady Harleigh taught me: it is not whom we love that is impor-<br > tant, but only that we love.<br ><br >
