M. Montgomery<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cIt was a happy and beautiful bride who came down the old, homespun-carpeted stairs that September noon &#8211; the first bride of Green Gables, slender and shining-eyed, in the mist of her maiden veil, with her arms full of roses. Gilbert, waiting for her in the hall below, looked up at her with adoring eyes. She was his at last, this evasive, long-sought Anne, won after years of patient waiting.

If he failed her &#8211; if he could not measure up to her standard of manhood &#8211; then, as she held out her hand, their eyes met and all doubt was swept away in a glad certainty. They belonged to each other; and, no matter what life might hold for them, it could never alter that. Their happiness was in each other\u2019s keeping and both were unafraid.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Get the free e-book\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gutenberg.org\/ebooks\/544\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We noticed that we hadn&#8217;t featured any readings for a while, so we thought now would be the perfect time!
