The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King Lear by William Shakespeare: Either his notion weakens, his discernings
Are lethargied- Ha! waking? 'Tis not so!

Gon. This admiration, sir, is much o' th' savour
Of other your new pranks. I do beseech you
 King Lear |
