THE END

     "Tell me what to get and I will get
             it."
          "Then get that picture — that — the
             girl in white."
     "Now tell me where you wish that I should
             set it."
          "Lean it where I can see it — in the
             light."

     "If there is more, sir, you have but to say
             it."
          "Then bring   those  letters — those
             which lie apart."
     "Here is the packet! Tell me where to
            lay it."
          "Stoop over, nurse, and lay it on
            my heart."

     "Thanks for  your  silence,  nurse! You
            understand me!
          And now  I'll   try  to  manage  for
            myself.
     But, as you go, I'll trouble you to hand
            me
          The small blue bottle there upon the
            shelf.

     "And so farewell! I feel that I am
            keeping
          The sunlight from you; may your
            walk be bright!
     When you return I may perchance be
            sleeping,
          So, ere you go, one hand-clasp
            and good night!"
