Please God make him think I am still pretty.
The given line is from O'Henry's most popular short story 'The Gift of the Magi'.
In the story Jim and Della are a young couple who can hardly make both ends meet. But both love each other dearly and want to buy expensive and worthy Christmas Gifts for each other.
Totally short of cash, Della decides to sell her lovely cascading hair and buy Jim an expensive chain for his pocket watch.
As her hair is chopped off and she returns home with the gift she is a little scared of how Jim will react to her short hair. Jim doted over her beautiful hair.
So before she confronts Jim she prays to God requesting Him to make Jim think she is still beautiful.
