No that there was such a glorious thing. ... Ah what was more beautiful now? The silver heart or the new life which he in there had gifted her? Who could know? Who could work it out?"</p><p>Georg Julius Leopold Engel (1866–1931) was a German author and dramatist some of whose works were banned and whose grave was desecrated by the Nazis. A number of his novels were bestsellers and some were adapted into movies during his own lifetime.</p>
