Excerpt from Dog Stars Three Luminaries in the Dog World

He does not change when beauty flees, nor when poverty comes, nor when health goes. He gives his heart, his true and single heart to his mistress forever.

She may be Old and gray, with furrowed face, but he sees the pilgrim soul in her. He cannot voice his devotion, but his love is never dumb.

Excerpt from Dog Stars Three Luminaries in the Dog World

There is something intolerably pathetic in those lines of Yeats,

"When you are old and gray and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved - the pilgrim soul in you."

And there is more than one woman - even a beautiful woman - who has never found the man to love the pilgrim soul in her; and, after passionate protestations and broken vows, old, disillusioned, sad, and deserted, she has regained faith in love and fidelity through the devotion of a - dog.

He does not change when beauty flees, nor when poverty comes, nor when health goes. He gives his heart, his true and single heart to his mistress forever.

She may be old and gray, with furrowed face, but he sees the pilgrim soul in her. He cannot voice his devotion, but his love is never dumb.
