| The first excerpt represents the past or something you must release, and is drawn from The Rig Veda: them
for the food that strengthens.
10 May this your laud, may this your song O Maruts, sung by
the poet
Mana's son,
Mandarya,
Bring offspring for ourselves with food to feed us. May we
find
strengthening food in full abundance.
The Rig Veda |
The second excerpt represents the present or the deciding factor of the moment, and is drawn from Songs of Innocence and Experience by William Blake: Night is worn,
And the morn
Rises from the slumbrous mass.
'Turn away no more;
Why wilt thou turn away?
The starry floor,
The watery shore,
Is given thee till the break of day.'
EARTH'S ANSWER
Earth raised up her head
From the darkness dread and drear,
Songs of Innocence and Experience |
The third excerpt represents the future or something you must embrace, and is drawn from The Wrecker by Stevenson & Osbourne: laughed and shouted like children as they cleared their camp:
and some one beginning to whistle _Marching Through
Georgia,_ the remainder of the packing was conducted, amidst
a thousand interruptions, to these martial strains. But the
strong head of Wicks was only partly turned.
"Boys," he said, "easy all! We're going aboard of a ship of
which we don't know nothing; we've got a chest of specie, and
seeing the weight, we can't turn to and deny it. Now, suppose
she was fishy; suppose it was some kind of a Bully Hayes
business! It's my opinion we'd better be on hand with the
pistols."
