The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Man against the Sky by Edwin Arlington Robinson: That seemed half ready with him to go down,
Flame-bitten and flame-cleft, --
As if there were to be no last thing left
Of a nameless unimaginable town, --

Down to the perils of a depth not known,
From death defended though by men forsaken,
The bread that every man must eat alone;
He may have walked while others hardly dared
Look on to see him stand where many fell;
And upward out of that, as out of hell,
