Today's Stichomancy for Douglas Adams

The first excerpt represents the past or something you must release, and is drawn from Confidence by Henry James:

Brus, like the other palace servants, considered De Vac a loyal retainer of the house of Plantagenet. What- ever else of mischief De Vac might be up to, Brus was quite sure that in so far as the King was concerned, the key to the postern gate was as safe in De Vac's hands as though Henry himself had it.

The old fellow wondered a little that the morose old master of fence should, at his time in life, indulge in frivolous escapades more befitting the younger sprigs
