I am disappointed in your efforts. Oh, how it storms! See the snow-flakes and the great stream of water! I really feel its cold currents now. Something is to be destroyed by it ere you meet the lady. She is in the bottom of the cup. Why have you left her so long. I can hardly find her. You will need to strive for your good fate.
She is to pass out of your life I think some years before you do, yet you will live an active life. Many artistic new roads and the plough. You will create something truly beautiful--see the pedestal amid the landscape--the swing and gardening. How restful it makes me feel! You will be so, sometime, young man.
OBJECT LESSONS.
Now, young ladies, concentrate your minds and let us note the symbols, if your wish really to have views and comprehensive enjoyment, so that what is shown in each cup may be at the close interestingly connected. Like in a Primer, let us go straight through. You have heard other readings, develop your descriptive faculties. Do not stop till done to discuss in detail, thereby losing the best effects, and you will thus find some interesting results. You see how most persons like to lift the veil to revelations. Much progress lies before us all.
SURPRISED.
Just look here, Florence, said the amateur, rings and a sunrise, not out of the clouds either. Look, too, at the oval forms like eggs. At home we can't get such cups. Here we are in the higher waves. We are determined to read something to inspire others, as you read to us, said the girls with eagerness.
But, which one of you ladies turned the cup? I ought to have directed my occult forces on one at a time. Now, you need to divide honors and loss.
The one who is herein represented is in a most happy frame of mind. I wish it were the test cup--the third and certainty--for the sake of the fortunate lady and her family, then your destiny were assured and your mentality would advance into lofty channels by the influence of an elderly couple and their progressive sons, for here is a tower of moral strength. Hearts, circles, Bible and clovers are in the life-path. The skies, too, are clear and every thing is high up you see in optimism.
Let us now to business. Ah! here it is--gains. A large goose egg is in shape, also a nest. That is the home, though a great care has fallen into it. See the rain and these many little crosses here together so near the nest, which, in this turn, is the home, as there is no other symbol for it; now you can trace the square as the home-hearts also.
You are kind and come from sympathetic people who love truth, books and progress, as does this Bible family. An old man who is in another city will write. See the M., the letters and the road. There being no form of a man you take the initial. He may be sixty-one years of age; see, the numbers are touching the M.--man--in the midst of the dots. Sticks and crossties with wavy lines--common vexations.
