The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Dracula by Bram Stoker: autumn seemed like the completion of nature's annual work.
The leaves were turning to all kinds of beautiful colors,
but had not yet begun to drop from the trees. When we
entered we met Mrs. Westenra coming out of the morning room.
She is always an early riser. She greeted us warmly and said,
"You will be glad to know that Lucy is better. The dear child
is still asleep. I looked into her room and saw her, but did
not go in, lest I should disturb her." The Professor smiled,
and looked quite jubilant. He rubbed his hands together,
and said, "Aha! I thought I had diagnosed the case.
My treatment is working."
