Quotation from: The Land That Time Forgot

Written by: Edgar Rice Burroughs


"You love me, Lys?" I cried.


I felt her head nod an affirmative against my breast. "Tell me,
Lys," I begged, "tell me in words how much you love me."


Low and sweet and tender came the answer: "I love you beyond
all conception."


My heart filled with rapture then, and it fills now as it has
each of the countless times I have recalled those dear words, as
it shall fill always until death has claimed me. I may never see
her again; she may not know how I love her--she may question, she
may doubt; but always true and steady, and warm with the fires of
love my heart beats for the girl who said that night: "I love you
beyond all conception."
