I thought I had the heart disease when I was about nineteen years of age. My heart would beat so when I went up stairs that I had to sit down at the top.
If, however, the tone does not belong to the tonic chord, but, let us suppose, to the subdominant, it comes as a hindrance, an obstacle, or perhaps as a new and rival purpose springing up in the course of the fulfillment of the old, a purpose which can be satisfied only through the other tones of its chord.
"This eating," he wrote, "this drinking, this self-indulgence, this marrying, this living to the world what a poor preparation it is for men who are leaving Babylon.
