Excerpt from The Green Goddess Other priests held it his very great grace But they were wrong, for it was no saintship, but simply the su preme sincerity of his love of his wife, making him glad to give to her what he most of all things would have wished to keep for himself: the daily and constant companionship of Jack. And yet - were they wrong after all? Surely to love as this man loved is grace, a grace unto the grace of the Kingdom of Heaven. His wife, his son, and his mother were as much an active part of his daily life to-day as they ever had been; and Jack, the last to be laid there, had lain in the old Surrey churchyard a full score of years. Each day he went to their graves which no hand but his ever tended - it was not far to go; only across the narrow country road-saw that their flowers were fresh, and the bleakest winter's day they had their flowers, and passed on in to pray in the church where his mother and he and Jack had been christened, and where his mother and Helen and he had been married - then back to his home and his people, his tireless, gentle minister ing to good and to sinful, his sipping of good wine, his reading of books, his games and his writing, and his care of Lucilla. He could not remember his father; for the father had gone down with his ship when Philip had been but a baby; and Lucilla could remember neither her mother nor brother; for they had died when she was not three. Helen Reynolds was still remembered in the parish for her pretty face, and her soft kind ways - remem bered as a nice little thing with the best heart in the world, but no special strength of mind or of will.
