{"product_id":"2940013740839","title":"Dr Dorn's Revenge","description":"They stood together by the sea, and it was evident the old, old story\u003cbr\u003ewas being told, for the man's face was full of pale excitement, the\u003cbr\u003egirl's half averted from the ardent eyes that strove to read the\u003cbr\u003efateful answer in her own.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"It may be folly to speak when I have so little to offer,\" he said,\u003cbr\u003ewith an accent of strong and tender emotion in his voice that went\u003cbr\u003estraight to the girl's heart. \"It may be folly, and yet if you love as\u003cbr\u003eI love we can wait or work together happy in the affection which\u003cbr\u003ewealth cannot buy nor poverty destroy.

Something in the manful courage, the patient endurance\u003cbr\u003ewith which he met and bore, and would in time conquer misfortune, woke\u003cbr\u003eher admiration and respect. He was different from those about her, and\u003cbr\u003ecarried with him the unconscious but sovereign charm of integrity. The\u003cbr\u003elove she saw in his eloquent eyes seemed a different passion from the\u003cbr\u003eshallow, selfish sentimentality of other men. It seemed to ennoble by\u003cbr\u003eits sincerity, to bless by its tenderness, and she found it hard to\u003cbr\u003eput it by.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs she listened to his brief appeal, made impressive by the intensity\u003cbr\u003eof repressed feeling that trembled in it, she wavered, hesitated, and\u003cbr\u003etried to silence conscience by a false plea of duty.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHalf turning with the shy glance, the soft flush of maiden love and\u003cbr\u003eshame, she said slowly:","brand":"William Stockert","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47070198563056,"sku":"2940013740839","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013740839_p0.jpg?v=1763589615","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013740839","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
