| 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: LAM 4:3 Even the sea monsters draw out the breast, they give suck to
their young ones: the daughter of my people is become cruel, like the
ostriches in the wilderness.
LAM 4:4 The tongue of the sucking child cleaveth to the roof of his
mouth for thirst: the young children ask bread, and no man breaketh it
unto them.
LAM 4:5 They that did feed delicately are desolate in the streets: they
that were brought up in scarlet embrace dunghills.
LAM 4:6 For the punishment of the iniquity of the daughter of my people
is greater than the punishment of the sin of Sodom, that was overthrown
as in a moment, and no hands stayed on her.
