The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from A Voyage to Arcturus by David Lindsay: Krag suspended his work, and turned around.
"Beating on Your heart, Maskull," was his grinning response.
The cliff and Krag vanished. Maskull saw Gangnet struggling in the
air - but it was not Gangnet - it was Crystalman. He seemed to be
trying to escape from the Muspel-fire, which kept surrounding and
licking him, whichever way he turned. He was screaming.... The fire
caught him. He shrieked horribly. Maskull caught one glimpse of a
vulgar, slobbering face - and then that too disappeared.
He opened his eyes. The floating island was still faintly
illuminated by Alppain. Krag was standing by his side, but Gangnet
was no longer there.
