We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.
and that part of my reply which he could make most use of, poem coming out of it, that Christ was the FIRST sacrifice, yes LAST too, that is the beauty of how he laid his life down as sacrifice, I mean, like in animals — 'cut my throat'...Christ being FIRST HUMAN we know of to so come to terms with -'thought/ 'consciousness/ and 'sense perception' right out of 'Narcissism/ 'shyness/ yes AND 'desire to have power over the world.'" ((Olson then reading me Robert's reply which did take Christ as 'Second Person/ after ADAM 'First Person/ in terms of subject of the world (((you see, Jane, how hard it is for me to, how I must capitalize "ADAM" over my mistake of God in that place — and was I right there to take adam in terms of "subject of the world? "...of course not — Jesus, how I have to keep the demons at bay in writing to^you with true perspective..^, what is Adam? ...well, Duncan had said something like "I take Adam as made." ...puns using him?))) )) ) Wow ~ parenthesis (that is, on end, 'says' and/or parent thesis.)

Now as I'm being presumptuous enough to put in quote marks outside of parentheses, here, that is above, I'm going to copy out of Gerrit Lansing's wonderful collection some printed statements of Olson's which came up over and over again, threading in and out of the conversation as reverences I should, and have, and am here making, to end the substance of this letter ~ give you as much as I can, dear Jane, knowing your needs, dearest Jane, they being so related to mine now and for a later look-up for each of us.,,. To start with,, as Olson read it over and over to me, out of the Melville book CALL ME ISHMAEL, look up the passage in there where Melville makes, strikes, balance between Goetic (Olson making reference to "trickster" magic there, immediately) and Theurgic (Olson emphasizing, "to start with The — or, to pun, Godic, magic).
