| The first excerpt represents the element of Air. It speaks of mental influences and the process of thought, and is drawn from King James Bible: EXO 26:8 The length of one curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the
breadth of one curtain four cubits: and the eleven curtains shall be all
of one measure.
EXO 26:9 And thou shalt couple five curtains by themselves, and six
curtains by themselves, and shalt double the sixth curtain in the
forefront of the tabernacle.
EXO 26:10 And thou shalt make fifty loops on the edge of the one
curtain that is outmost in the coupling, and fifty loops in the edge of
the curtain which coupleth the second.
EXO 26:11 And thou shalt make fifty taches of brass, and put the taches
into the loops, and couple the tent together, that it may be one.

The second excerpt represents the element of Fire. It speaks of emotional influences and base passions, and is drawn from King James Bible: ECC 4:2 Wherefore I praised the dead which are already dead more than
the living which are yet alive.
ECC 4:3 Yea, better is he than both they, which hath not yet been, who
hath not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.
ECC 4:4 Again, I considered all travail, and every right work, that for
this a man is envied of his neighbour. This is also vanity and vexation
of spirit.
ECC 4:5 The fool foldeth his hands together, and eateth his own flesh.
ECC 4:6 Better is an handful with quietness, than both the hands full
with travail and vexation of spirit.
ECC 4:7 Then I returned, and I saw vanity under the sun.
