But the summer had been a very happy one, too -- a time of glad living with summer suns and skies, a time of keen delight in wholesome things; a time of renewing and deepening of old friendships; a time in which she had learned to live more nobly, to work more patiently, to play more heartily.

You don't know love when you see it. You've tricked something out with your imagination that you think love, and you expect the real thing to look like that.

"He's almost a rhyme," said Dean.
"But never a poem," said I.
Nothing good about this but it's title. A priggish little yarn. And Hidden Riches is not a story--it's a machine. It creaks. It never made me forget for one instant that it was a story. Hence it isn't a story.
