The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from 1492 by Mary Johntson: and dreadful, or mirage-pleasing with a mirage-
ecstasy.
Juan Lepe did not die, but he lay ill and like to die for
two months. It was deep in October, that day at dawn
when I came quietly, evenly, to myself again, and lay most
weak, but with seeing eyes. At first I thought I was alone
in the cavern, but then I saw Guarin where he lay asleep.
That day I strengthened, and the next day and the next.
But I had lain long at the very feet of death, and full
strength was a tortoise in returning. So good to Juan Lepe
was Guarin!
