'Gabriel! be of good cheer! for if we love one another
Nothing, in truth, can harm us, whatever mischances may happen!' (559-560)
Well… nothing except for wild pigeon fever that is, which is what apparently does Gabriel in at the end of the poem. We take Evangeline's point, though: love conquers all. Even though the doomed couple never quite make it work, the power of their love is evident in the way it sustains Evangeline on her search.
