Solitude revealed to him all her secrets, and enveloped him in her
delights. He discovered in the rising and setting of the sun sights
unknown to the world. He knew what it was to tremble when he heard
over his head the hiss of a bird's wing, so rarely did they pass, or
when he saw the clouds, changing and many colored travelers, melt one

the ocean of sand, where the simoom made waves swift of movement and

The second excerpt represents the present or the deciding factor of the moment, and is drawn from Just Folks by Edgar A. Guest: It bears me into country new

When for the doctor we've a need

It saves us hours of anxious care
And heavy heartache and despair.
It has its faults, but still I sing:
The auto is a helpful thing.

The third excerpt represents the future or something you must embrace, and is drawn from The Koran: bounds, He will make him enter into fire, and dwell therein for aye;
and for him is shameful woe.
Against those of your women who commit adultery, call witnesses four
in number from among yourselves; and if these bear witness, then
keep the women in houses until death release them, or God shall make
for them a way.
And if two of you commit it, then hurt them both; but if they turn
again and amend, leave them alone, verily, God is easily turned,
compassionate.
God is only bound to turn again towards those who do evil through
ignorance and then turn again. Surely, these will God turn again to,
The Koran |
