And just as it is common to hear how, when one is in love, anything one sees reminds one of that love – our feelings remake the world in a secular equivalent of the faith that sees the hand of God in everything – so I began to find that when one is thinking on a theme, everything seems to reflect on it. Suddenly, everything I saw or read, in this girlish city of temples, seemed to take me back to the theme of the lady and the monk.
