“Innocent, simple-minded little maid! The power of passionate loving was surging through her soul, filling her with a longing that was like a sickness, making her feel in ignorance that she could love anyone who but gave her his love; and yet, when love was offered, she turned away unsatisfied, without knowing why.”
