Rembrandt Biblical Scene

Rembrandt Biblical Scene
Rembrandt The Jewish Bride
Return of the Prodigal Son
Well--never mind; don't grieve," said Jude generously. "I did suffer, God knows, about you at that time; and now I suffer again. But perhaps not so much as you. The woman mostly gets the worst of it in the long run!" ¡¡¡¡ "She does." ¡¡¡¡ "Unless she is absolutely worthless and contemptible. And this one is not that, anyhow!" ¡¡¡¡ Sue drew a nervous breath or two. "She is--I fear! ... Now Jude--good-night,--please!" ¡¡¡¡ "I mustn't stay?--Not just once more? As it has been so many times-- O Sue, my wife, why not!" ¡¡¡¡ "No--no--not wife! ... I am in your hands, Jude--don't tempt me back now I have advanced so far!" ¡¡¡¡ "Very well. I do your bidding. I owe that to you, darling, in penance for how I overruled it at the first time. My God, how selfish I was! Perhaps--perhaps I spoilt one of the highest and purest loves that ever existed between man and woman! ... Then let the veil of our temple be rent in two from this hour!"
