| The third excerpt represents the element of Water. It speaks of pure spiritual influences and feelings of love, and is drawn from King James Bible: families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the
names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth
to war;
NUM 1:27 Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Judah,
were threescore and fourteen thousand and six hundred.
NUM 1:28 Of the children of Issachar, by their generations, after their
families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the
names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth
to war;
NUM 1:29 Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of
Issachar, were fifty and four thousand and four hundred.

The fourth excerpt represents the element of Earth. It speaks of physical influences and the impact of the unseen on the visible world, and is drawn from The Waste Land by T. S. Eliot: In the faint moonlight, the grass is singing
Over the tumbled graves, about the chapel
There is the empty chapel, only the wind's home.
It has no windows, and the door swings,
Dry bones can harm no one. 390
Only a cock stood on the rooftree
Co co rico co co rico
In a flash of lightning. Then a damp gust
Bringing rain
Ganga was sunken, and the limp leaves
Waited for rain, while the black clouds
 The Waste Land |
