Juliet Marillier Quotes

I Had Less Control Over My Thoughts Than I'd Have Liked. The Little Ring Hung Around My Neck, Under My Gown, Where Nobody Could See It. When I Was Alone, I Took It Out Sometimes, Wondering How He Had Judged The Size, With Nothing But My Swollen, Knotted Fingers To Go By. Wondering If My Hands Would Ever Be As They Once Were, Small, White, And Fine. By The Time That Happened, If It Ever Did, I Would Be Long Gone From Here. I Would Have Left Behind Both Husband And Wedding Ring. It Mattered Little Whether The Size Were Right Or No. Yet, When I Thought This, I Found My Hand Closing Around The Ring As If I Did Not Want To Let It Go. It's Mine, Something Inside Me Would Say.
