However among the effects this breathing is father of is that tremendous one of sharpening one's vision into the heart an natures of Man- of convincing ones nerves that the World is full of Misery and Heartbreak, Pain Sickness and oppression - whereby this Chamber of Maiden Thought becomes gradually darken'd and at the same time on all sides of it many doors are set open - but all dark - leading to dark passages - We see not the ballance of good and evil. We are in a Mist. We are now in that state - We feel the "burden of the Mystery."
To JH Reynolds, 3 May 1818
