| The first excerpt represents the element of Air. It speaks of mental influences and the process of thought, and is drawn from King James Bible: of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, was come to go in unto
the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king's chamberlain,
the keeper of the women, appointed. And Esther obtained favour in the
sight of all them that looked upon her.
EST 2:16 So Esther was taken unto king Ahasuerus into his house royal
in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of
his reign.
EST 2:17 And the king loved Esther above all the women, and she
obtained grace and favour in his sight more than all the virgins; so
that he set the royal crown upon her head, and made her queen instead of
Vashti.

The second excerpt represents the element of Fire. It speaks of emotional influences and base passions, and is drawn from King James Bible: JDG 2:20 And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel; and he said,
Because that this people hath transgressed my covenant which I commanded
their fathers, and have not hearkened unto my voice;
JDG 2:21 I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of
the nations which Joshua left when he died:
JDG 2:22 That through them I may prove Israel, whether they will keep
the way of the LORD to walk therein, as their fathers did keep it, or
not.
JDG 2:23 Therefore the LORD left those nations, without driving them
out hastily; neither delivered he them into the hand of Joshua.
JDG 3:1 Now these are the nations which the LORD left, to prove Israel
