TEXT

1. EC: Again, as Abe plays music such as has never been heard before, there is the change of scenes as reviewed by Abe, and each sees himself as being a part of that being related.
2. It is Grecian!
3. The King is upon his throne in the personage of Abe, and in that of Amos, Sr. the jester, while in that of Amos, the second, the King's Courtier, and James the one being presented for trial before the King. Catherine weeping for the wrongs as enacted toward her person. Mae showing disdain for such conditions being presented in open Court, while Wayne is the Judge, with whom the King councils.
4. As the scenes are recalled, each sees in this as though it were a portion of their individual selves, and as though it were in answer to many of their secret thoughts.
5. Abe is awakened from the mesmeric state.
6. The whole company appear dazed.
7. Catherine, first to grain control to self, goes to Abe and placing her arm about his shoulder questions him as to his past life and as to his study of the Psychic and Occult, as to how much he remembered of what he had just said, also the conditions surrounding his childhood, where and when he had learned to play such music and if he could play it now.
8. Abe appears dazed, yet there is the expression in his appearance of having been in the border of another consciousness. Yet, with the nearness of Catherine, and the conscious condition of the difference in their stations in life, and those surrounding him, he becomes more and more confused, yet lapsing every few seconds into the dazed or unconscious state.
9. After a time the normal overpowers and he begins to tell of his life, his wanderings, how he had been the member of a Gypsy band and was left in the care of the gypsy mother who was the soothe-sayer, or fortune teller, of the group, and how he had watched as a child the actions of the people who came to her to have their palms or future read, how this impressed him, and as he thought and studied in his wanderings, the effects produced upon these subjects who came, there began to develop the thought of self, and he felt rather than know there had been other conditions, but ever was there this passion for music he felt rather than gained consciousness of.
10. After many wanderings, and he had reached the age of eighteen, the band broken, he had drifted from one logging camp to another. His study of animal life in the woods brought the passion for music. He studied self in silence days and weeks and months.
