Book: Secret marriage

Is there another case in which the pleasant possibility of the most intimate relationship could continue for so long without becoming bored with monotony? And when is this mutual friendly intimacy born freer, more natural and more convenient? When does her face touch yours more often? When does her hair happen to mix with yours more often, her cheeks to touch your cheeks, her eyes to meet your eyes? Of all the moments of happiness, this is the only time when you can breathe her breath for several hours, feel the heat of her cheeks flaring up and passing into you, follow every gentle vibration of her chest, listen to her every weak breath, as if one breath revives your hearts. No doubt, only at this time or never do we personify or experience in ourselves the love of the primordial couple of the human race, when she walked with angels in paradise until the fruits of the fateful tree darkened the purity of her heart.
