Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Olive, Vol. 3 of 3: A Novel
But she did not forget. Selfish, worldly mourners are they, who think that the memory of the beloved lost can only be kept green by tears. Olive Rothesay was not of these. To her, her mother's depar ture appeared no more like death, than did one Divine parting - with reverence be it spoken l - appear to those who stood and looked heavenward from the hill of Bethany.
And thus should we think upon all happy and holy deaths if we fully and truly believed the faith we aver.
Olive did not forget her mother - she could as soon have forgotten her own soul.
