You know it is not , therefore I am sure you will be wise and generous , and spare Amy further grief by avoiding her for the little time we stay . Promise me this , Casimer . '' `` I may see her if I am dumb ? Do not deny me this . I will not speak , but I must look at my little and dear angel when she is near . '' He pleaded so ardently with lips and hands , and eager eyes , that Helen could not deny him , and when he had poured out his thanks she left him , feeling very tender toward the unhappy young lover , whose passion was so hopeless , yet so warm . Amy was at breakfast in her room , sobbing and sipping , moaning and munching , for , though her grief was great , her appetite was good , and she was in no mood to see anything comical in cracking eggshells while she bewailed her broken heart , or in eating honey in the act of lamenting the bitterness of her fate . Casimer would have become desperate had he seen her in the little blue wrapper , with her bright hair loose on her shoulders , and her pretty face wet with tears , as she dropped her spoon to seize his flowers , -- three dewy roses , one a bud , one half and the other fully blown , making a fragrant record and avowal of the love which she must renounce . `` Oh , my dear boy ! how can I give him up , when he is so fond , and I am all he has ? Helen , uncle must let me write or go to mamma . She shall decide ; I ca n't ; and no one else has a right to part us , '' sobbed Amy , over her roses . `` Casimer will not marry , dear ; he is too generous to ask such a sacrifice , '' began Helen , but Amy cried indignantly , -- `` It is no sacrifice ; I 'm rich . What do I care for his poverty ? '' `` His religion ! '' hinted Helen , anxiously . `` It need not part us ; we can believe what we will . He is good ; why mind whether he is Catholic or Protestant ? '' `` But a Pole , Amy , so different in tastes , habits , character , and beliefs . It is a great risk to marry a foreigner ; races are so unlike . ''
`` I do n't XXXXX if he is a Tartar , a Calmuck , or any of the other wild tribes ; I love him , he loves me , and no one need object if I do n't . ''
