And it is no easy thing to conquer when you 've let it rule you for years as I have done . But I have conquered it , or you have conquered it for me . Child , here is a letter . It is to your mother -- my sister Elizabeth . In it I have asked her to forgive me , and to forget our long estrangement . I have asked her to come back to me with you and her boys . I want you all -- all -- at Greenwood and I will do the best I can for you all . '' `` Oh , Uncle Paul , '' cried Worth , her face aglow and quivering with smiles and tears and sunshine . `` Do you think she will forgive me and come ? '' `` I know she will , '' cried Worth . `` I know how she has longed for you and home . Oh , I am so happy , Uncle Paul ! '' He smiled at her and put his arm over her shoulder . Together they walked up the golden arcade to tell the others . That night Charlotte and Ellen cried with happiness as they talked it over in the twilight . `` How beautiful ! '' murmured Charlotte softly . `` We shall not lose Worth after all .
Ellen , I could not have borne it XXXXX see that girl go utterly out of our lives again . ''
