But when I speak to you of death, know that I myself have died and been reborn many times before. Yet I speak to you and I speak in a lively manner, for one dead. Therefore, when you are tempted to think of it as an end of all, then remember that you know a rather lively spirit and when you hear my voice speaking through Ruburt this evening then remember how hoarse it was before I began to speak, and know indeed that were I not such a gentleman, I could add considerably to its volume. The hour is late however and Ruburt would not thank me for my troubles. He would worry about the neighbors.

Now when circumstances are good we had better take advantage of them. I shall not keep you long. I could indeed go on, myself, like this for hours but I shall take into consideration your human failings and I know you need such things as sleep. I am indeed coming through very well this evening, very well, however, and if I may say so I am in somewhat of a frisky mood. However, and this is to show you that your so-called spirits are not always long-faced and somber. I am at times, I admit, mischievous. You must realize that basic reality is joyful and that the way of life upon which I hope you shall embark is joyful, and if my actions and communication can show you this then I have done well indeed. Now, it will not particularly serve any great or awesome purpose for me to thus appear in this guise nor to raise my voice in a way quite impossible for this rather puny young woman, and yet because the circumstances are so auspicious I am so tempted.

This scribbling goes slowly. Now, I am aware that I shall have some small difficulties with my friend but he, Ruburt, understands. When circumstances are at their best then he allows me to come through clearly, but he is concerned over issues that are only of surface importance as far as the volume of the voice is concerned, and he is only now learning control. I will end our session again because I understand that your hour is late. Your hour has little to do with me however and I merely defer to your wishes.
