| The first excerpt represents the past or something you must release, and is drawn from Paradise Lost by John Milton: Shaded with branching palm, each Order bright,
Sung triumph, and him sung victorious King,
Son, Heir, and Lord, to him dominion given,
Worthiest to reign: He, celebrated, rode
Triumphant through mid Heaven, into the courts
And temple of his Mighty Father throned
On high; who into glory him received,
Where now he sits at the right hand of bliss.
Thus, measuring things in Heaven by things on Earth,
At thy request, and that thou mayest beware
By what is past, to thee I have revealed
Paradise Lost |
The second excerpt represents the present or the deciding factor of the moment, and is drawn from Dracula by Bram Stoker: of too super sensitive a nature to go through the world without trouble.
She will be dreaming of this tonight, I am sure. The whole agglomeration
of things, the ship steered into port by a dead man, his attitude,
tied to the wheel with a crucifix and beads, the touching funeral, the dog,
now furious and now in terror, will all afford material for her dreams.
I think it will be best for her to go to bed tired out physically, so I
shall take her for a long walk by the cliffs to Robin Hood's Bay and back.
She ought not to have much inclination for sleep-walking then.
