Delerium's Mistress: Tales of the Flat Earth Book 4

by Tanith Lee

  “Each word you have spoken,” she said, “was a tear.”

  She was so bowed and shrunken that even as he knelt, his head might lie upon her sunken breast. He laid it there, and so she held him, the aged mother with her fourth handsome son, and she sang to him then, as the Vazdru sang—for some mysteries had never been lost to her.

  The substance of her song they do not tell.

  Who does not know?
