Background
A description of the experience
Thomas Hardy – from After the Visit
You drew from the shade,
And I saw the large luminous living eyes
Regard me in fixed inquiring wise
As those of a soul that weighed
Scarce consciously
The eternal question of what Life was
And why we were here, and by whose strange laws
That which mattered most could not be
