The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Twilight Land by Howard Pyle: "It is I," said he, "and I am King of the Wind, and ten times
greater than the greatest of kings here below. One day I saw you
walking in your garden and fell in love with you, and now I have
come to ask you if you will marry me and be my wife?"
"But how can I marry you?" said the princess, "without seeing
you?"
"You shall see me," said the soldier, "all in good time. Three
days from now I will come again, and will show myself to you, but
just now it cannot be. But if I come, will you marry me?"
"Yes I will," said the princess, "for I like the way you
talk--that I do!"
