Out of the depths of my happy heart wells a great tide of love and
prayer for this priceless treasure that is confided to my life-long
keeping.
You cannot see its intangible waves as they flow towards you, darling,
but in these lines you will hear, as it were, the distant beating of the
surf.
Mark Twain (Samuel Langhorne Clemens), American writer, to Olivia
Langdon, his future wife.
