Chapter LXV: He clings to the memory of Hallam, yet would resign himself to his loss
Text size
"Sweet soul, do with me as thou wilt."
All that he can resolve is, to cherish every grain of love; and in doing so, there springs up the "happy thought," that if his own nature has been elevated by intercourse with Hallam, why may not a like result have been reflected from himself on his friend?
"Since we deserved the name of friends,
And thine effect so lives in me,
A part of mine may live in thee,
And move thee on to noble ends."
