Today's Stichomancy for Laurence Fishburne

The first excerpt represents the past or something you must release, and is drawn from Whirligigs by O. Henry:

This upon your left. Upon the right, the roofs and spires of the Old Town climb one above another to where the citadel prints its broad bulk and jagged crown of bastions on the western sky. - Perhaps it is now one in the afternoon; and at the same instant of time, a ball rises to the summit of Nelson's flagstaff close at hand, and, far away, a puff of smoke
