Then ah, would Heaven that I wot if stress of parting done, * The world will grant me sight of them in union fain and free Roll up the scroll of severance which others would unroll * Efface my trouble by the grace of meeting's jubilee!
For this, a succession of alternate ideas is required: therefore a suitable combination is wanted of several particular actions corresponding with these different ideas; actions round which the principal action and the tragic impression which it is wished to produce through it unroll themselves like the yarn from the distaff, and end by enlacing our souls in nets, through which they cannot break.
