FRANK. Perhaps Vivie's got some.
MRS WARREN. Nonsense! What would a young girl like her be doing
with such things! Never mind: it dont matter. I wonder how she
passes her time here! I'd a good deal rather be in Vienna.
FRANK. Let me take you there. [He helps her to take off her
shawl, gallantly giving her shoulders a very perceptible squeeze
as he does so].
MRS WARREN. Ah! would you? I'm beginning to think youre a chip

The second excerpt represents the present or the deciding factor of the moment, and is drawn from The Mountains by Stewart Edward White: whooped it up at a gait which would have appalled
seasoned old stagers like ourselves. Those blessed
lunatics seemed positively unhappy unless they

I have never seen such a universally tired out,
frazzled, vitally exhausted, white-faced, nervous
community in my life as I did during our four days'
stay in the Valley. Then probably they go away,

The third excerpt represents the future or something you must embrace, and is drawn from The Tanach: Deuteronomy 4: 10 the day that thou stoodest before the LORD thy God in Horeb, when the LORD said unto me: 'Assemble Me the people, and I will make them hear My words that they may learn to fear Me all the days that they live upon the earth, and that they may teach their children.'
Deuteronomy 4: 11 And ye came near and stood under the mountain; and the mountain burned with fire unto the heart of heaven, with darkness, cloud, and thick darkness.
Deuteronomy 4: 12 And the LORD spoke unto you out of the midst of the fire; ye heard the voice of words, but ye saw no form; only a voice.
Deuteronomy 4: 13 And He declared unto you His covenant, which He commanded you to perform, even the ten words; and He wrote them upon two tables of stone.
Deuteronomy 4: 14 And the LORD commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and ordinances, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go over to possess it.
Deuteronomy 4: 15 Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves--for ye saw no manner of form on the day that the LORD spoke unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire--
Deuteronomy 4: 16 lest ye deal corruptly, and make you a graven image, even the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female,
Deuteronomy 4: 17 the likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the heaven,
Deuteronomy 4: 18 the likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the water under the earth;
Deuteronomy 4: 19 and lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun and the moon and the stars, even all the host of heaven, thou be drawn away and worship them, and serve th  The Tanach |
