The idea that her love for him might have ebbed a little, or that she would for a moment consider leaving him, he rejected as preposterous, of course: the reputation which the majority of her sex had made throughout the ages for constancy to the marriage tie was not to be so lightly dissipated.
"Yet, as the events have proved, and will prove in the ages to come, we have been but as intelligent instruments in the hands of that eternal wisdom and justice which, though it may seem to sleep for a season, and permit the evildoer to pursue his wickedness for a space, never closes the eye of watchfulness or sheathes the sword of judgment.
When we can explain the nature of this force adherent to moonlight, and to no other light, we may inquire why, in all ages and in all lands, the verdict of experience points to moonlight as a factor in the production and aggravation of lunacy.

"Yes?" she spoke faintly, with averted face. "Something more a stronger tie, a closer bond. Unorna, do you believe in the migration of the soul throughout ages, from one body to another?" "Sometimes," she succeeded in saying. "I do not believe in it," he continued. "But I see well enough how men may, since I have known you.
The point however, which I want to make is this the Middle Ages and especially the thirteenth century were not a time when the world stood entirely still. Among the younger generation, there was life, there was enthusiasm, and there was a restless if somewhat bashful asking of questions. And out of this turmoil grew the Renaissance.
The Yogi Teachings give us but little information regarding the people of the First and Second Cycles, because of the low state of these ages.
