[Assistant] I must have looked askance at this because he smiled, still careful of his mouth. So many bruises, you know. I'll have to thank ye again, it seems. This makes three times in three days you've doctored me. You'll be thinking I'm fair clumsy. I touched a purple mark on his jaw. Not clumsy. A little reckless, perhaps.

[Assistant] The bandages on your shoulder can come off to-morrow, though. I'll find you then." I. Thank you again. He squeezed my hand lightly in farewell. I went out, looking curiously at the girl as I passed. She was even prettier, close up, with soft blue eyes and rose-petal skin. She glowed as she looked at Jamie.

[Assistant] Great Expectations by Charles Dickens Chapter 39 I was three and twenty years of age.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not another word had I heard to enlighten me on the subject of my expectations, and my twenty-third birthday was a week gone. We had left Barnards Inn more than a year, and lived in the temple. Our chambers were in garden court, down by the river.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mr. Pocket and I had for some time parted company as to our original relations, though we continued on the best terms, notwithstanding my inability to settle to anything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had a taste for reading and read regularly so many hours a day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That matter of Herbert's was still progressing, and everything with me was as I have brought it down to the close of the last preceding chapter. Business had taken Herbert on a journey to Marseilles. I was alone, and had a dull sense of being alone, dispirited and anxious.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Long hoping that tomorrow or next week would clear my way and long disappointed, I sadly missed the cheerful face and ready response of my friend.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was wretched weather, stormy and wet, stormy and wet, and mud, mud, mud, deep in all the streets.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Day after day a vast heavy veil had been driving over London from the east, and it drove still.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As if in the east there were an eternity of cloud and wind. So furious had been the gusts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That high buildings in town had the lead stripped off their roofs, and in the country trees had been torn up, and sails of windmills carried away, and gloomy accounts had come in from the coast of shipwreck and death.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Violent blasts of rain had accompanied these rages of wind, and the day just closed as I sat down to read, had been the worst of all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alterations have been made in that part of the temple since that time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it is not now so lonely a character as it had then, nor is it so exposed to the river. We lived at the top of the last house.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the wind rushing up the river shook the house that night like discharges of cannon, or breakings of a sea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When the rain came with it and dashed against the windows, I thought, raising my eyes to them as they rocked, that I might have fancied myself on a storm-beaten lighthouse. Occasionally the smoke came rolling down the chimney, as though it could not bear to go out into such a night. And when I set the doors open and looked down the staircase, the staircase lamps were blown out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And when I shaded my face with my hands, and looked through the black windows,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Opening them ever so little was out of the question and the teeth of such wind and rain, I saw that the lamps in the court were blown out, and that the lamps on the bridges and the shore were shuddering, and that the coal fires and barges on the river were being carried away before the wind like red-hot splashes in the rain. I read with my watch upon the table, purposing to close my book at eleven o'clock. As I shut it, St. Paul's


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And all the many church clocks in the city, some leading, some accompanying, some following, struck that hour. The sound was curiously floored by the wind.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I was listening and thinking how the wind assailed and tore it, when I heard a footstep on the stair.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What nervous folly made me start, and awfully connected with the footstep of my dead sister, matters not. It was past in a moment, and I listened again, and heard the footstep stumble in coming on. Remembering then that the staircase lights were blown out, I took up my reading lamp and went out to the stair-head. Whoever was below had stopped on seeing my lamp, for all was quiet. There is someone down there, is there not?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I called out, looking down. Yes, said a voice from the darkness beneath. What floor do you want? The top, Mr. Pip. That is my name. There is nothing the matter. Nothing the matter, returned the voice, and the man came on. I stood with my lamp held out over the stair-rail, and he came slowly within its light.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was a shaded lamp, to shine upon a book, and its circle of light was very contracted, so that he was in it for a mere instant, and then out of it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the instant I had seen a face that was strange to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Looking up with an incomprehensible air of being touched and pleased by the sight of me. Moving the lamp as the man moved, I made out that he was substantially dressed, but roughly, like a voyage of my sea, that he had long iron-grey hair, that his age was about sixty, that he was a muscular man, strong on his legs, and that he was browned and hardened by exposure to weather. As he ascended the last stair or two,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For I resented the sort of bright and gratified recognition that still shone in his face. I resented it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because it seemed to imply that he expected me to respond to it. But I took him into the room I had just left, and having set the lamp on the table, asked him as civilly as I could to explain himself. He looked about him with the strangest air, an air of wondering pleasure, as if he had some part in the things he admired, and he pulled off a rough outer coat and his hat. Then I saw that his head was furrowed and balled.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And at the long iron-grey hair grew only on its sides. But I saw nothing that in the least explained him. On the contrary, I saw him next moment, once more, holding out both his hands to me. What do you mean?" said I, half suspecting him to be mad. He stopped in his looking at me, and slowly rubbed his right hand over his head. "'It's disappointing to a man,' he said in a coarse, broken voice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He sat down on a chair that stood before the fire, and covered his forehead with his large brown, veinous hands. I looked at him attentively then, and recoiled a little from him, but I did not know him. "'There's no one nigh,' said he, looking over his shoulder. "'Is there?' "'Why do you, a stranger coming into my rooms at this time of the night, ask that question?' said I.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He returned, shaking his head at me with a deliberate affection, at once most unintelligible and most exasperating. I'm glad you've grown up a game one, but don't catch hold of me. You'll be sorry afterwards to have done it. I relinquished the intention he had detected, for I knew him. Even yet, I could not recall a single feature, but I knew him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Had scattered all the intervening objects, had swept us to the churchyard where we first stood face to face on such different levels. I could not have known my convict more distinctly than I knew him now, as he sat on the chair before the fire. No need to take a file from his pocket and show it to me. No need to take the handkerchief from his neck and twist it round his head. No need to hug himself with both his arms and take a shivering turn across the room


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Looking back at me for recognition, I knew him before he gave me one of those aids, though a moment before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had not been conscious of remotely suspecting his identity. He came back to where I stood, and again held out both his hands.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not knowing what to do, for, in my astonishment, I had lost my self-possession, I reluctantly gave him my hands. He grasped them heartily, raised them to his lips, kissed them, and still held them. "'You acted noble, my boy,' said he, "'noble Pip, and I never forgot it.'" Had a change in his manner, as if he were even going to embrace me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you are grateful to me for what I did when I was a little child.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I hope you have shown your gratitude by mending your way of life. If you have come here to thank me, it was not necessary. Still, however you have found me out, there must be something good in the feeling that has brought you here, and I will not repulse you. But surely you must understand that I— My attention was so attracted by the singularity of his fixed look at me that the words died away on my tongue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He observed, when we had confronted one another in silence, that surely I must understand. What surely must I understand?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thinking, I deserve to be thanked, you have come to thank me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But our ways are different ways, none the less. You are wet, and you look weary. Will you drink something before you go?" He had replaced his neckerchief loosely, and had stood keenly observant of me, biting a long end of it. I think—he answered still with the end at his mouth, and still observant of me—that I will drink. I thank you, afore I go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I brought it to the table near the fire, and asked him what he would have.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He touched one of the bottles without looking at it or speaking, and I made him some hot rum and water.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I tried to keep my hand steady while I did so, but his look at me, as he leaned back in his chair with a long-draggled end of his neckerchief between his teeth, evidently forgotten, made my hand very difficult to master. When at last I put the glass to him, I saw with amazement that his eyes were full of tears. After this time I had remained standing, not to disguise that I wished him gone, but I was softened by the


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Softened aspect of the man, and felt a touch of reproach.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Many a thousand mile of stormy water off from this. I hope you have done well. I've done wonderfully well. There's others went out along with me, as has done well too. But no man has done nigh as well as me. I'm famous for it. I'm glad to hear it. I hope to hear you say so, my dear boy. Without stopping to try to understand those words,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of the tone in which they were spoken, I turned off to a point that had just come into my mind. Have you ever seen a messenger you once sent to me? I inquired. Since he undertook that trust? Never set eyes upon him. I weren't likely to it. He came faithfully, and he brought me the two one-pound notes. I was a poor boy then, as you know, and to a poor boy they were a little fortune, but like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have done well since, and you must let me pay them back. You can put them to some other poor boy's use. I took out my purse.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He watched me as I laid my purse upon the table and opened it, and he watched me as I separated two one-pound notes from its contents. They were clean and new, and I spread them out and handed them over to him. Still watching me, he laid them one upon the other, folded them longwise, gave them a twist, set fire to them at the lamp, and dropped the ashes into the tray.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He said then, with a smile that was like a frown, and with a frown that was like a smile, as I ask you, how you have done well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He put a foot up to the bars to dry and warm it, and the wet boot began to steam. But he neither looked at it, nor at the fire, but steadily looked at me. It was only now that I began to tremble.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When my lips had parted, and had shaped some words that were without sound, I forced myself to tell him, though I could not do it distinctly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With my heart beating like a heavy hammer of disordered action, I rose out of


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And stood with my hand upon the back of it, looking wildly at him. Concerning a guardian, he went on, there ought to have been some guardian, or such like, while he was a minor. Some lawyer, maybe. As to the first letter of that lawyer's name now, would it be J? All the truth of my position came flashing on me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's disappointments, dangers, disgraces, consequences of all kinds.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He rushed in, in such a multitude, that I was worn down by them, and had to struggle for every breath I drew. "'Put it,' he resumed, "'has the employer of that liar, whose name begun with a J, and might be Jackers, put it as he had come over sea to Portsmouth, and had landed there, and had wanted to come on to you. However, you have found me out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wrote from Portsmouth to a person in London for particulars of your address. That person's name? Wee. Wemmick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I stood with a hand on the chair back, and a hand on my breast, where I seemed to be suffocating. I stood so, looking wildly at him, until I grasped at the chair, when the room began to surge and turn. He caught me, drew me to the sofa, put me up against the cushions, and bent on one knee before me, bringing the face that I now well remembered, and that I shadowed out, very near to mine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What odds, dear boy? Do I tell it for you to feel our obligation? Not a bit. I tell it for you to know, as that there hunted donil dog, what you kept in life. God, he said so high that he could make a gentleman. Ampip, you're him. The abhorrence in which I held the man, the dread I had of him, the repugnance of which I shrank from


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Could not have been exceeded if he had been some terrible beast. Looky here, Pip. I'm your second father. You're my son. More to me than any son. I put away money only for you to spend.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When I was a hired-out shepherd, in a solitary hut, not seeing no faces but faces of sheep,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Till I forgot what men's and women's faces was like. I see yarn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I dropped my knife many a time in that hut, when I was eating my dinner or my supper, and I says, here's the boy again, looking at me, whilst I eats and drinks. I see you there, and many times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As plain as ever I see you on them misty marshes. Lord, strike me dead! I says each time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You shall show money with lords for wagers and beat'em." In his heat and triumph, and in his knowledge that I had been nearly fainting, he did not remark on my reception of all this. It was the one grain of relief I had. "'Lucky here!' he went on, taking my watch out of my pocket, and turning towards him a ring on my finger, while I recoiled from his touch as if he had been a snake.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Again he took both my hands, and put them to his lips, while my blood ran cold within me. Don't you mind talking, Pip? said he, after again drawing the sleeve over his eyes and forehead, as the click came in his throat, which I well remembered. And he was all the more horrible to me, that he was so much an earnest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can't do better, nor keep quiet, dear boy. You ain't looked slowly forward to this as I have. You wasn't prepared for this, as I was. But didn't you never think it might be me? Oh, no, no, no. I returned, never, never. Well, you see, it was me. And single-handed. Never a soul in it, but my own self.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Isn't their bright eyes somewheres what you love the thoughts on? Oh, Estella, Estella. They shall be yawned, dear boy, if money can buy them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not that a gentleman like you, so well set up as you, can't win him off of his own game, but money shall back you. Let me finish what I was a-tellin' you, dear boy. From that there hut, and that there iron-out, I got money left me by my master, which died and had been the same as me, and got my liberty, and went for myself. In every single thing I went for, I went for you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, that he had never come. That he had left me at the forge. Far from contented, yet, by comparison, happy. And then, dear boy, it was a recompense to me. Look here, to know in secret that I was making a gentleman.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The blood-horses of them colonists might fling up the dust over me as I was walking. What do I say? I'll assess them myself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm making a better gentleman, nor ever you'll be. And one of them says to another, he was a convict a few year ago, and is a ignorant common fellow now, for all he's lucky. What do I say? I says to meself. If I ain't a gentleman, nor yet ain't got no learning, I'm the owner of such. All on your own stock and land.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had seemed to myself to attend more to the wind and the rain and to him. Even now I could not separate his voice from those voices, though those were loud and his was silent. "'Where will you put me?' he asked presently. "'I must be put somewhere as dear boy.' "'To sleep?' said I. "'Yes, and to sleep long and sound.'


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He answered, for I've been sea-tossed and sea-washed months and months. My friend and companion, said I, rising from the sofa, is absent. You must have his room. He won't come back to-morrow, will he?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Said I, answering almost mechanically, in spite of my utmost efforts. Not to-morrow. Because looky here, dear boy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nothing was needed but this. The wretched man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After Loden wretched me with his gold and silver chains for years, I'd risked his life to come to me, and I held it there in my keeping. If I had loved him, instead of abhorring him,

[Assistant] If I had been attracted to him by the strongest admiration and affection, instead of shrinking from him with the strongest repugnance, it could have been no worse. On the contrary, it would have been better


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For his preservation would then have naturally and tenderly addressed my heart. My first care was to close the shutters, so that no light might be seen from without, and then to close and make fast the doors. While I did so, he stood at the table drinking rum and eating biscuit. And when I saw him thus engaged, I saw my convict on the marshes at his meal again. It almost seemed to me as if he must stoop down presently to file at his legs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I brought it out, and laid it ready for him, and my blood again ran cold when he again took me by both hands to give me a good night.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got away from him without knowing how I did it, and mended the fire in the room where we had been together, and sat down by it, afraid to go to bed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For an hour or more, I remain too stunned to think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it was not until I began to think, that I began fully to know how wrecked I was, and how the ship in which I had sailed was gone to pieces.

[Assistant] That for weeks gone by I had passed vases in the streets which I had thought like his. That these likenesses had grown more numerous as he coming over the sea had drawn nearer. That his wicked spirit had somehow sent these messengers to mine, and that now on this stormy night he was as good as his word, and with me. Crowding up with these reflections came the reflection that I had seen him with my childish eyes


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To be a desperately violent man. That I had heard that other convict reiterate that he had tried to murder him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That I had seen him down in the ditch, tearing and fighting like a wild beast. Out of such remembrances, I brought into the light of the fire a half-formed terror


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But he was asleep and quiet too, though he had a pistol lying on the pillow. Assured of this, I softly removed the key to the outside of his door.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the wind and rain intensified the thick black darkness.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is the end of the second stage of Pip's Expectations. End of chapter 39.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Desire of Ages, Chapter 74, Gethsemane.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In company with his disciples, the Savior slowly made his way to the Garden of Gethsemane. The Passover moon, broad and full, shone from a cloudless sky.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Never with a heart so full of sorrow as upon this night of his last agony.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Throughout his life on earth, he had walked in the light of God's presence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now he was numbered with the transgressors, the guilt of fallen humanity he must bear. Upon him who knew no sin must be laid the iniquity of us all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That he is tempted to fear it will shut him out forever from his father's love.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Feeling how terrible is the wrath of God against transgression, he exclaims. My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As he proceeded, this strange sadness deepened, yet they dared not question him as to the cause. His form swayed as if he were about to fall upon reaching the garden.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The disciples looked anxiously for his usual place of retirement that their master might rest. Every step that he now took was with laboured effort. He groaned aloud


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Near the entrance to the garden, Jesus left all but three of the disciples, bidding them pray for themselves and for Him. With Peter, James, and John, He entered its secluded recesses.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These three disciples were Christ's closest companions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They had beheld his glory on the Mount of Transfiguration.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They had seen Moses and Elijah talking with him. They had heard the voice from heaven. Now in his great struggle, Christ desired their presence near him. Often they had passed the night with him in this retreat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On these occasions, after a season of watching and prayer, they would sleep undisturbed at a little distance from their master, until he awoke them in the morning, to go forth anew to labor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But now he desired them to spend the night with him in prayer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This agony he must not exert his divine power to escape. As man he must suffer the consequences of man's sin. As man he must endure the wrath of God against transgression.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His suffering can best be described in the words of the prophet. Awake, oh sword against my shepherd.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the substitute and surety for sinful man, Christ was suffering under divine justice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He saw what justice meant. Hitherto he had been an intercessor for others. Now he longed to have an intercessor for himself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As Christ felt his unity with the Father broken up, he feared that in his human nature,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He would be unable to endure the coming conflict with the powers of darkness.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the wilderness of temptation, the destiny of the human race had been at stake. Christ was then conqueror.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For this he had been preparing during the three years of Christ's ministry. Everything was at stake with him. If he failed here, his hope of mastery was lost.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Christ's soul was filled with dread of separation from God.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Satan told him that if he became the surety for a sinful world, the separation would be eternal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He would be identified with Satan's kingdom and would never more be one with God.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Christ's whole being abhorred the thought that those whom he had undertaken to save, those whom he loved so much should unite in the plots of Satan. This pierced his soul. The conflict was terrible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The guilt of a world lying in wickedness.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Behold him, contemplating the price to be paid for the human soul.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The chilling dew of night falls upon his prostrate form, but he heeds it not. From his pale lips comes the bitter cry, Oh, my father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me. Yet even now, he adds, nevertheless, not as I will, but as thou wilt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he longed to know that they were praying for him and for themselves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Had they been seeking refuge in God that satanic agencies might not prevail over them, he would have been comforted by their steadfast faith. But they had not heeded the repeated warning, watch and pray.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At first they had been much troubled to see their master, usually so calm and dignified.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They had prayed as they heard the strong cries of the sufferer. They did not intend to forsake their Lord, but they seemed


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Paralyzed by a stupa which they might have shaken off if they had continued pleading with God. They did not realize the necessity of watchfulness and earnest prayer in order to withstand temptation. Just before he bent his footsteps to the garden, Jesus had said to the disciples, All ye shall be offended


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They had given him the strongest assurance that they would go with him to prison and to death. And poor, self-sufficient Peter had added, Although all shall be offended, yet will not I.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the disciples trusted to themselves. They did not look to the mighty helper, as Christ had counseled them to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The loving disciple who had leaned upon the breast of Jesus was asleep.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His earnest prayers should have mingled with those of his loved savior in the time of his supreme sorrow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Redeemer had spent entire nights praying for his disciples that their faith might not fail.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Should Jesus now put to James and John the question he had once asked them, Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of? And to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? They would not have ventured to answer, We are able.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A short time before, Jesus had stood like a mighty cedar, withstanding the storm of opposition that spent its fury upon him. Stubborn wills and hearts filled with malice and subtlety had striven in vain to confuse and overpower him. He stood forth in divine majesty as the son of God. Now, he was like a reed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They saw his face marked with the bloody sweat of agony and they were filled with fear. His anguish of mind they could not understand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men. Turning away, Jesus sought again his retreat and fell prostrate, overcome by the horror of a great darkness.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He prayed not now for his disciples that their faith might not fail, but for his own tempted, agonized soul. The awful moment had come.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The moment which was to decide the destiny of the world. The fate of humanity trembled in the balance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Christ my Eva now refused to drink the cuppa portion to Guilty Man. It was not yet too late.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He might wipe the bloody sweat from his brow and leave man to perish in his iniquity. He might say, let the transgressor receive the penalty of his sin and I will go back to my father.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The words fall tremblingly from the pale lips of Jesus. Oh, my father!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Three times has humanity shrunk from the last crowning sacrifice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He will save man at any cost to himself. He accepts his baptism of blood, that through him, perishing millions may gain everlasting life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The one world that has fallen by transgression and he will not turn from his mission.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He will become the propitiation of a race that has willed to sin. His prayer now breathes only submission.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where now were his disciples to place their hands tenderly beneath the head of their fainting master, and bathe that brow, marred indeed more than the sons of men?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The saviour trod the winepress alone, and of the people there was none with him. But God suffered with his son.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Angels beheld the Savior's agony. They saw their Lord enclosed by legions of satanic forces, weighed down with a shuddering mysterious dread. There was silence in heaven. No harp was touched.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The world's unfallen and the heavenly angels had watched with intense interest as the conflict drew to its close.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Angels had longed to bring relief to the Divine Sufferer, but this might not be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No way of escape was found for the son of God in this awful crisis when everything was at stake, when the mysterious cup trembled in the hand of the sufferer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The heavens opened, a light shone forth amid the stormy darkness of the crisis hour, and the mighty angel


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who stands in God's presence occupying the position from which Satan fell came to the side of Christ.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Telling him of the souls that would be saved as the result of his sufferings, he assured him that his father is greater and more powerful than Satan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That his death would result in the utter discomfiture of Satan and that the kingdom of this world.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He told him that he would see the travail of his soul and be satisfied.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But his depression and discouragement left him. The storm had in no wise abated but he who was its object.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For he had tasted the sufferings of death for every man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To the strange stupor that overpowers them. Again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Looking sorrowfully upon them, he says, sleep on now, and take your rest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Behold the hour is at hand and the son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even as he spoke these words, he heard the footsteps of the mob in search of him and said, Rise, let us be going. Behold, he is at hand that doth betray me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As these words were spoken, the angel who had lately ministered to Jesus moved between him and the mob.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A divine light illuminated the Savior's face and a dove-like form overshadowed him. In the presence of this divine glory,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The murderous throng could not stand for a moment. They staggered back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jesus had opportunity to escape, but he remained calm and self possessed. As one glorified, he stood in the midst of that hardened band.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They seemed ashamed of their weakness and fearful that he would yet escape. Again the question was asked by the Redeemer. Whom seek ye?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To the question whom seek ye, again they answered, Jesus of Nazareth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Savior then said, I have told you that I am He. If therefore ye seek me, let these go their way, pointing to the disciples. He knew how weak was their faith.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When the mob entered the garden, he had led the way, closely followed by the high priest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To the pursuers of Jesus he had given a sign saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same as he hold him fast. Now he pretends to have no part with them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As if in sympathy with him in his peril. Jesus said to him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? His voice trembled with sorrow as he added, Judas, betrayest thou the son of man with a kiss?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This appeal should have aroused the conscience of the betrayer and touched his stubborn heart. But honour.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jesus did not refuse the traitor's kiss.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels, a legion in place of each one of the disciples. Oh, why, the disciples thought, does he not save himself and us? Answering their unspoken thought, he added,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With swords and staves as you would against a thief or a robber.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You had every opportunity of laying hands upon me, and you did nothing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Following this suggestion, they all forsook him and fled. But Christ had foretold this desertion. Behold, he had said, the hour cometh, yeaah, is now come.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To support interactive data analysis and also data driven communication.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, uh, these are my wonderful, uh, PhD students and, uh, we're working together trying to actually, uh, think about


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So when a user wants to gain some insights about a dataset or trying to communicate some findings about a dataset, they do that through an interactive system.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oftentimes user needs to convey their goals and their intents and preferences to the system and which is processed by the system.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have, uhm, uhm, basically this interaction between human and machine. And Licklider, uh, back in 1960 actually proposed his vision on human-computer symbiosis, which basically is about a very tight coupling between the human and also the machine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The human and the machine can actually produce more effective results than either the man or the machine alone can actually produce.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So in the real world of, however, in order to enable this kind of symbiotic relationship, we actually face two kinds of challenges. On one hand, oftentimes the visual representations produced by the systems can be potentially ineffective or can be very hard to interpret by humans.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So in my talk today, I will talk about two threads of research work trying to address these two challenges. The first thread is really trying to understand how we can produce or generate effective and interpretable visual representations of data.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in the second part of my talk, I will be talking about how we can potentially align system model and human mental models, uh, in the context of authoring and reusing data visualization designs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So let me start with the first thread first. Uhm, so uhm, in our daily life and work, actually we encounter a lot of event sequence data. So when I was working at Adobe, uhm, the


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So every click, uh, the user makes on the website generates a timestamp and a page name. So this basically is, are the different attributes of an event.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So as the user navigates to different parts of the website, all their interactions generate a sequence of events. So this is one example of event sequence data in commercial domains, and these are called clickstreams.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Event sequence data are also pervasive in many other domains. So for example, uh, when a patient comes to a hospital,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, they often have to go through some kind of, uh, checkups. Um, so this, this, this is a dataset, uh, from a pediatric trauma unit where the patient needs to go through the so-called A, B, C, D, E events checking, so airway breathing, circulation, etc.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the, uh, uhm, the doctors actually are interested in trying to understand


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Followed uhm, are actually, there are any kind of deviations from the expected procedures.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So in general, we have clickstream data, patient records, uh, as event sequence data, but also we have other kinds of data sets like human movements, uh, development workflows, application log data, and also digital marketing touchpoints.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sometimes people are interested in trying to identify the common patterns in the dataset. So for example, what are the typical navigation paths on the website?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In other cases, it's more about detecting anomalies. For example, in the example of patient records, the doctors want to know, do patients actually go through essential checks in the right order?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So here we are applying the Senki diagram to only a moderately sized data set of clickstreams consisting of only a dozen unique events and only six steps and the Senki diagram becomes really hard to understand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Similarly, if we're only looking at only 200 different sequences of patients' records, uhm, the icicle plot at the bottom is really unintelligible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, so the problem is then how do we produce effective and interpretable visual representations of data? In this case, event sequence data.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So here's an example. We have five input sequences, uhm, and they're going from top to bottom. And what sequential pattern mining does is that it tries to identify a common set of events across multiple sequences.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] E1, E2, E3, E4, E9, and they appear in all of the five input sequences.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And similarly, we can find other kinds of patterns which may only happen in a subset of this data. So here we have a shorter pattern.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we can continue to find more if we lower the kind of the percentage of the sequence required. So based on this technique, we can actually design some visualizations trying to help people to make sense of their data. So here is a representation of a pattern mined from the data set.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This shows, uh, people are actually going through the, uh, consumer admin landing page, and then they're going to pay their bill later. We also show the amount of people going through each of these milestone events in the pattern. And then we show the individual sequences matching this pattern, uh, as an icicle plot. And we can highlight the


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And with this basic setup, we can enable people to interactively explore the data. So for example, when I click on the event, I can interactively align these different sequences by that event so that I can more clearly see what is happening before an event or in between a pair of events.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, sequences or patterns, uh, which are shown to me, which means that there are actually 10 different groups of behaviors. But this is a very wrong interpretation of the visualization. If we look at, for example, these three highlighted patterns here, we actually see that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So in order to address this problem, we actually were inspired by this idea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this is actually the visualization produced by Coreflow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So this visualization basically gives us a more complete understanding of what's going on in people's navigation behavior without actually any overlapping patterns. Under the hood, Coreflow uses a, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we first try to rank all the events in these sequences by some predefined metrics. So for example here, C is ranked top because it appears in the most number of sequences with the lowest average index in these sequences. So we add C to the branching pattern.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then we divide the sequences into two groups, those containing C and those not containing C.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then we train the sequences containing C so that we can basically focus on the subsequences after the first event C.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that's the first iteration, and then we basically do this recursively for all the groups that have been generated because of this process.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think most of us will agree that, uh, the core flow representation, the one on the right, is actually more effective than the one on the left. Right? So reflecting on this, uh, uh, process actually,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And over the years, uh, actually, uh, we see more and more visualizations, summarization techniques, uh, that came out trying to, uh, visualize event sequence data in many different domains. And these techniques are getting more and more sophisticated.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, summarize each cluster using a sequential pattern. Uhm, so,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in order to solve this problem, we can use an information theoretic approach where the description length of the data set can be defined


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then based on this formulation, uh, the problem becomes basically trying to achieve a balance or trade-off between the simplicity of the overview


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we can actually mathematically formulate the description length of any potential visual summarization generated using this approach. And then we can try to come up with optimization algorithms trying to generate the right number of clusters.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that's one approach, and another one is basically trying to leverage deep learning models, like sequence to sequence models, right? So this is a more recent paper where the author tries to use an encoder and decoder structure, trying to basically summarize the probabilities of events happening in each time slot in a sequence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, given all these different approaches, actually we see many, many potential algorithms and tools that are available for people to visualize their event sequence data.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the granularity of these summaries can also vary quite a bit, which are manifested in terms of the number of clusters and also the number of branches.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we realized that actually most of the, uh, technique implementations are not available. There is no way for us to actually try them. Uh, and all these, uhm, techniques are actually evaluated through case studies. There are no standard evaluation benchmarks and metrics. And oftentimes there is also a lack of explanations for the performance of a technique.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If summarization actually works, we don't know why it works that way. And if it fails to produce a meaningful visualization, we don't know why that happens.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So users are basically presented with an insight, which is the fact, and then they're shown a visual summary one at a time. So they need to give a Leica scale rating on how well the visualization actually represents the given fact or the ground truth. They also need to enter a short explanation for their rating.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So based on this study, we found that actually there is a trade-off between the summary quality and also the time taken for people to interpret the visual summaries. So here we have three lines. Each line is a task.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The average Likert scale rating and the amount of time taken to actually read those or interpret those summaries. We also find that the summary quality rating depends on two factors, content and interpretability.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So content basically is about the match between the visualization pattern and insights. In other words, whether important events and associated quantitative information are actually included in the visualization.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this is only the first study, and we're doing actually more additional follow-up work. But this basically led us to this new area of work where we need, where we realize we need to perform human-centered comparison to evaluate these techniques. And in order to do so,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We really need to do lots of research on the evaluation methodology, the metrics we use, and also potentially developing benchmarks, uh, in terms of both datasets and also metrics, uh, for this kind of research.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How do we enable people to articulate their intent effectively to the system?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we will be talking about this in the context of visualization creation. Alright, so there are actually many different tools and very powerful tools out there enabling people to create an expressive visualization. So you are probably familiar with D3 or VegaLite or Tableau MGT Plus 2, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, this chart basically shows how often do politicians, uh, tell truth or lies, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this is a perfectly fine chart, but oftentimes people would like to see how the truth and the lies actually diverge.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People often actually adopted a slightly variation of this design. This is called a diverging stack bar chart. So basically we try to align


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Most people's intuition would be just trying to align these different bars in the center by the gray area, right? So that's a very intuitive way to describe how you would actually create some of the design on the right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In order to do this, you have to actually go back to the source data and then change all the data related to the false category to negative values. And then basically you need to regenerate the visualization again, which is counterintuitive to many people's mental models.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So here we're looking at basically different manufacturers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then the, uhm, basically the proportion of, uh, each device, uh, by different manufacturer, right? So it's a very, uh, straightforward visualization. Uh, when we actually ask people how they would describe or create this kind of visualization, I think many of the people thought


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, this is not, for example, how Tableau works. Uh, so my, Zina, when she worked on the, uh, uh, event sequence evaluation paper, she needed to create some, something like this. And she couldn't figure out how to do that in Tableau. She had to search online and found this kind of 16 step.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So in general, I think there is a misalignment between people's mental model and visualization models, and oftentimes it's really hard for people to articulate what they want to assist them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you can also potentially dynamically change the scales of these, uhm, uhm, bars. Uhm, so these are very


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So when we actually presented Lincoln at a conference, uhm, people were actually quite skeptical about it. So Nathan Yao, who runs the flowing data blog,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You work on the geometry and colors and aesthetics later on. So the data really informs the design and he thinks Project Lincoln is trying to flip this workflow and it doesn't seem to make much sense to him. Uhm, so he's basically saying my brain was confused and my gut says no.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then you go through a number of different process stages in the process, right? You define the variables, the algebra, the scales.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, so our research question then basically is trying to, uh, come up with a framework for manipulable semantic components, which are basically graphical objects and also associated relationships that can be visually represented and manipulated at design time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I won't go into the details of the specific of this framework. Basically, we have visual objects, which are Mark, Cliff,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we implemented this framework in a library called Mascot, standing for Manipulable Semantic Components, and we were able to demonstrate its expressive power by actually producing a gallery of diverse visualization designs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, so this work basically lays the foundation for many applications for doing interactive visualization. Uhm, so one application is actually we can enable people to author visualizations from scratch, using a what you see is what you get approach. So this is implemented in a system called Data Illustrator.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And on the right, we have a layers view, which basically shows the hierarchy of the organizations of these visual objects on the canvas. And we also have a property inspector panel, which shows all the different visual properties for each of the visual objects. And you can actually perform data binding in this panel as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So let's take a look at how Data Illustrator works in action. So our goal is trying to create a very simple pie chart design like this. So we have


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, in these countries in different years. So at the bottom right we have the input data we have. So we have four attributes. Country, year, category, and also percentage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, in order to create something like this, in the grammar of graphics, basically what we need to do as we saw earlier is trying to actually write a form of specification. And here's how we can create something similar in Data Illustrator.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we first try to use the circle tool to draw a circle, and then we repeat it by the country variable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can do some customizations of the axis to make the axis look nicer, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then after that, we can select any of these circles.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Visualization library or tool, uh, it's very hard to actually translate the design you want into a set of operations or primitives afforded by that tool.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But however, they're facing challenges in using examples. Oftentimes they don't really know how to modify the example to suit their own data set and needs. And oftentimes they face difficulties in trying to operationalize the desired changes using specific tools.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So to address this problem, we looked into previous literature and we were actually inspired by this idea of reusing an existing chart.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The three charts into reusable style templates and also researchers from Microsoft Research also looked at how we can actually reuse infographics charts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, these works have their own limitations because they mostly focus on style, not layout, and they only support basic chart types. Furthermore, some tools also assume the examples are created by a specific tool, which is not very generalizable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Get an SVG chart, uh, without using its source code and without getting its underlying data, can we actually try to reuse the design and apply it to our own data set?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Automatically deconstruct the main chart content into a set of layout components based on Mascot, uh, the manipulable semantic component frameworks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, and then users, so here basically we came up with the bottom, uh, hierarchical clustering algorithm trying to group individual visual marks into meaningful groups and also layouts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here is a demo of how Mystique works. So we have imported these tree map bar charts and, uh, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First, the mystique tries to automatically extract the x-axis and the y-axis and the legend. And you can see there are some mistakes, right? So,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mystique misses the year labels, which is the second level of x-axis, and also it got the type of the y-axis wrong. It should be numbers instead of categories.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we offer this interface for users to actually correct all these different mistakes. You can just drag and drop these labels and then change the data variable type.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then here we are going into the main interface, we're looking at the main chart content. And then here Mystic actually tries to analyze and decompose the components of the charts and then guide the user throughout a, like a very structured process.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So here first Mystic tries to highlight the first group of rectangles and asks the user what this highlighted group of rectangles should represent in their new dataset. So the user have a new dataset which is about,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then, uhm, Mystique basically goes to the next step and are highlighting different parts of the visualization and asking users what data variable in a new dataset should be mapped to that particular component.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, it goes through all these different groupings and then also down to the level of individual marks, and then it goes to the, uh, and then it proceeds to the encodings, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then all the visualizations will update dynamically in real time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right? So, uh, in doing so, basically what Mystique does is that it tries to actually transform the visualization creation and authoring task and also the skill requirement.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where he's basically studying and talking about the nature of cognitive tools. Data visualization for sure is a category of cognitive tools. And Hutchins basically argues that tools permit us to transform difficult tasks into ones that can be done by simple pattern matching.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There, uhm, because the end result or the end goal is just to create something that a user potentially wants and they sort of know what they


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, large language models basically still tries to actually produce code.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think there are also, LLMs can also potentially give you design ideas as well. So you can actually ask questions such as, okay, I have this dataset, how do I visualize it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I think, uh, in this sense, it's actually very helpful to people who don't have too much visualization knowledge or design expertise. I think it can be a good brainstorming tool for them to actually identify potential visualization ideas.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then I ask it to describe the image. It does a really good job of doing that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, based on my experience, it seems to be doing less well in actually accurately


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Workless. Do you know who I am? No sir.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ah, Mr. Noah Clypole. And you're under me, so don't you forget it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They bring him out of the court fainting, he gets in a carriage with this gentleman and they drive off. He'll blow on us, fake and for certain!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Aye, it is. It is my living.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On the very night that I was born, the room was suddenly aglow with sunlight, thus changing night to day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As if I were guarding an empty house when Hideyori is not here with me. I say again, strictly order that all be vigilant against fire.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Each night, have someone make the rounds of the rooms two or three times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sooner or later, some ambitious character will ferment rebellion in his name. And even if Hideyoshi knows nothing about it, he will be blamed and forced to commit suicide to the grief of Hideyoshi's ghost.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was told there were ships on fire. I ran up the mountain to get a good look. The ships came nearer and nearer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Until the sheep of them showed us they were not Japanese ships, but foreign. And what we had taken for a conflagration of sea


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Until the sheep of them showed us they were not Japanese ships, but foreign, and what we had taken for a conflagration on sea,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On horseback, Lord Ieyasu made out their positions. Estimate distance at two and a half miles.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The older man went on, disregarding such interruptions. The Mackenzies are kin to you, too. It's not a matter of forswearing your blood. And there's other considerations, too. His voice took on a teasing note. Like Mistress Lear, perhaps.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He got another noise in response, this one indicating embarrassment and dismissal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you know her father will no let her wed outside the clam. She was very young, Alec, and I felt sorry for her, said Jamie defensively. There's nothing more to it than that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This time it was Alec who made the Scottish noise. A guttural snort, full of derisory disbelief. Tell that one to the barn door, laddie. It's no more brains than to believe you. Well, Edith, it's nolier. And you could do a deal worse, mark me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You'd be a better prospect for marriage, did you hear? A bit of money and a future, as you would if you're next master.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You could take your choice of the lasses, if one doesn't choose you first.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alex snorted with the half-choked mirth of a man who seldom laughs. Flies round a honeypot would be nothing to it, lad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pennyless and nameless as you are now, the lassies still sigh after you. I've seen them. More snorting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wishing to prevent what promised to be a series of increasingly distasteful personal remarks, I decided it was time to be officially awake. Stretching and yawning, I sat up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was taking an exaggerated interest in packing up the remains of the picnic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Old Alex stared down at me, apparently taking notice of me for the first time. Interested in horses, I alas, he demanded. I could hardly say no under the circumstances.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Agreeing that horses were most interesting, I was treated to a detailed exegesis on the filly in the paddock, now standing drowsily at rest, tail twitching for the occasional fly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're welcome to come and watch anytime, Lois. Alec concluded.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So long as you didn't get so close, you distract the horses. They need to work, you can.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This was plainly intended as a dismissal, but I stood my ground, remembering my original purpose in coming here. Yes, I'll be careful next time, I promised. But before I go back to the castle,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But to my surprise it was Jamie who refused my attentions, turning away to go back to the paddock.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, it'll wait a while, lass, he said, looking away. There's much to be done yet to-day. Perhaps later, after supper, eh? This seemed very odd. He hadn't been in any hurry to return to work earlier.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I could hardly force him to submit to my administrations if he didn't want to. Shrugging, I agreed to meet him after supper and turned uphill to go back to the castle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As I made my way back up the hill, I considered the shape of the scar on Jamie's head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It wasn't a straight line, as might be made by an English broadsword.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The wound was curved, as though made by a blade with a definite bend. A blade like a Lahabah axe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But so far as I knew, the murderous axes had been, no, were, I corrected myself, carried only by clansmen. It was only as I walked away that it occurred to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For a young man on the run with unknown enemies, Jamie had been remarkably confiding to a stranger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is the part where I get really nervous. Really frickin' nervous.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have no time to waste. I'm begging your pardon, sir. I told him to go. He laughed at me. He said to give you this, sir.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which wouldn't matter a threatening bit if he didn't have power to go with it. Do you understand me? I'll have to deal with a man of his own kind.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is only a sham that keeps the likes of them up and the likes of you down. The sham of blood. And the truth is, a man's a man, whatever you name him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No. No, I'll take care of these. Yeaah, they'll be safer with me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If your lordship will read this entry from the log of the East India Company ship, Calcutta Queen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To be held by them in fee simple as freeholders and freemen while they live.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And by their heirs and assignees thereafter. The manor house and park.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In witness whereof, I have this day set my hand unsealed. It is signed Ben. Once known as Sir Benjamin Blake, baronet and master of breitham.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gwendolyn Christie, I mean last year, uh, uh, I was spending a lot of time with, uh, with Lena and with, uh, Hafthor who plays the Mountain. Oh, the Mountain, yeaah. Who's the, I mean, he's the second strongest man in the world. And he always, he always- Is he really the second strongest man in the world? Apparently so. That's, that's what he tells me. Oh, really? I am the second strongest man in the world.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He walk into a gym and everyone just stops because he's, he's like a mountain. Yeah. So we're doing deadlifts and that was ridiculous because he was like doing one arm then we were like couldn't, we could barely lift it. But then I thought, okay, he's big.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's, I was gonna test him, just using my body weight. So we were doing pull-ups and all that, and you know, he's weighing, he's a heavy guy, so he couldn't follow, so I beat him there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have to be honest, I mean, they're the producers. Dan Weiss actually beat me as well. Dan Weiss is the strongest man in the world. He's the strongest man in the world.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think any of the people who are screaming at the top of their lungs thinks for a moment that that is a literal, uh, that a literal interpretation would be Muslims.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think you can take a lot of that seriously. He's not gonna ban all Muslims. What the f-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mom, you didn't give me money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hi Billy, hope you're good. So let me ask some questions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who is someone that you would love to do to at that is not in life anymore?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Injuries? Injuries some more, y'know, I'm gonna tell ya. Can I tell ya, y'know, injured player can't throw the ball, y'know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's, it's been, it's been, it's been, it's been a while, but I, I'm like a good, uh, New York strip steak. I've been simmering in them onions and all that gravy and that bad, you know, that loaded potato ready. I'm ready to do it. That sweet tea. Come on. What you got?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But man, we, we, we, we, look, Pete Carmichael, look, they, they got to get the office, call the planes together, Q, this don't make no sense, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm still looking at, I hope it don't happen. Derek Carr goes out there and gets hurt out 5-6 game, and guess what? We got to go back to James Winston, and we know James Winston, and Dennis Allen had two rows of, you know, relationships the past two years. You know, so it's just, you just, you just got to look out for them things. You know, and so that's why I queued. I don't know if you got your little, your little draft board up there, but I really like, I think his name is


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] O'Shea, Torrance, out of Florida, Florida Gators, they need to get their young man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not, I'm not sold on that because you saw last year Q, we had a plethora of injuries on that interior, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think, I think one time, I think what, about all five?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For, uh, you know, certain length of time. We got to shoot that interior up here. What you think?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even though Q, I know we got Carl, I know we got Jabris, I know we got, uh, uh, uh, uh, Taysom Hill in a pinch. You know, I hope that don't happen, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, you know what, the past 10, 15 years, the sexes would be just plumber, pummeled with injuries right after, right after one, right after another.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was the offensive line, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, but I, to me, I would get hand in hook. I like that key, man. I really do what you think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think they gonna take, uh, I think Carolina gonna take, uh, CJ. I think they gonna take big boy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because I think they want to keep a big quarterback. If you notice, Carolina over the past, you know, Cam, uh, had Cam Lee, well, he was 6'5", 225. I don't think they want no, you know, no little man. So, you know, you know, I think, I think, I think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, old boy out of Alabama, uh, his name's Slippin' Man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I think he's going to slide a little bit because he's at six feet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And at two, you know, at one hundred and two hundred and fifteen miles.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Man, you know, most of your team want to get back to their big quarterback. Can you call it a little more durable? What you think?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Watch out, watch out for Will Livas too. I think, I think people sleeping on Will Livas. I think he's, he's a quality quarterback.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do that, do that. Why are you looking at that? You know who I'll go with the third round? I think, uh, still, you know, still kind of working on offense because like I said.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, the, the state's defense, if the office would have helped him out, even that, that you would treat some similarly back there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If we'd had more offense, we'd have won at least two or three more games, Q. It's just the offense kept stinking it up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Going out to three and out, three and out, three and out. Couldn't, you're fourth and three. Can't pick it up yet. If you do pick it up, you got a hole in the face mask pen and you lose it down. This, this crazy stuff, man, because you had a lack on the offensive line and you had a lack of quarterback. And I'm so glad they didn't re-sign Andy Dalton. I could just turn a back flip, man. I was so glad to see him gone. But, but the third pick, I liked that, uh, the young and young running back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Q, you know, you know, I, you know, I love New Orleans. You talking about the running back? Yeah, that Bajan. From Texas? Uh-huh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you know, I'm New Orleans. Hey man, I like that Charbonnet kid too. Yeaah, me too. Can't go wrong with Charbonnet. What you think, Q?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like it. I like Quinton Johnston, a wide receiver. He's real Michael Thomas-ish. I like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then you get guys in there dropping balls and you know, don't know where they at, don't know where to play. Like I said, I, I practice, Texas squad has, has been, was kind of, it was better on the sharp paid, but, uh, but uh, data's out, it's just not working cute. It's just not working what you think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That really hurt him. If he did have some touch, you know, I mean.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like the old gang is getting back together. And Q, we still, listen, I've been in New Orleans. It's going to be my second run down and we still need to do that family barbecue now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll do my stand up routine, do a couple impersonations. I'll do anybody saucy to help make the gumbo. We can do it Q, we can do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I think this tree, I would say this tree is special for Senelina because it just goes to show you that 500 years on from discovery,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It still exists, you know, it hasn't been destroyed. So...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh man, you know, I get a throw from this. I have to say, like, this is, you know, I like doing this, you know, and when I get a cat in a trap, it's a good feeling, you know, I know I gotta, I know I gotta kill it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, I feel like we're pretty authentic, like- If anyone puts on a character-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean- As far as batter- I don't know. I definitely rely, like, especially now, like-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Parker's production and Nate's hooks are like crazy. So I'm just kind of coasting like, I feel like our roles have reversed since we first started. Like, I used to write


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't want to say most of the hooks, but it was like, it was predominant. Yeah. Predominantly right hooks. And now Nate's just killing Nathaniel, which he was a tear bro. This is very informal. Yeah, he's like just killing the hook game and Parker of course is doing Parker and it's like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, for me anyway, I definitely, I was struggling, like I never...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, as much as I enjoy Drake, I've never been like, he's a number one rapper, but during like, comeback season so far gone, I'm like, yo, this shit, this shit's great. Yeah, they were still kidding. Yeah, they're still kidding. Like, I take the EP,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the first thing I saw, I saw like when I first like came up on Drake.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Styles is better than Jada Kiss. And I know I'm one of the few people to say that. Shout out to Jada.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's a good rapper. I definitely feel the same way. I've never actually openly gone into a Logic project, like, there's been a few things that I've heard where I was like, yo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's like one of those things, like when it comes to like the age gap that we have, and like the cultural, like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's the difference between you and me and like, you and them. Like, I grew up with niggas that, can't even say niggas. Like, I grew up with like, Mexicans, blacks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fuckin' Asians, Arabian, like everybody was like sayin' nigga, like nigga was a big thing. No, I get it too, like I get it too. I love how serious this whole podcast is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wonder what it says though, if it was clear. I might have to take a look at the book. Oh geez. Pissing cop.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel so proud to wear it, because everybody in the city centre is also wearing it. As a foreigner, I feel privileged to wear the national costume of the Faroe Islands.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know how it feels to be alone. Because when the first time I arrived in Faroe Island, I thought there are no Filipinos or Filipinas in the Faroe Island. So I must just like regretting that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I came to Faroe Island. I am thinking, how can I make friends? They don't understand my language. I don't understand their language.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, she already had a name, but to follow the tradition in the Faroe Islands, it's a secret. We are not allowed to...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tell it to anyone, not unless, uh, she's baptized.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the Philippines, when you get pregnant, you're already thinking of a name. I do the same. I was so annoyed because I cannot give, I feel like I cannot give her a name.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought Faroe Island is, uh, Faroe is part of Egypt. So I was thinking, ah, you're living in Egypt, I'm...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel so proud to wear it, because everybody in the city centre is also wearing it. As a foreigner, I feel privileged to wear the national costume of the Faroe Islands.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think Faroese people, they are used of us now here in the Faroe Islands. We're not invisible anymore because we are growing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was just a roundup. A West Texas roundup, that's all it was.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's not possible because I was at the bank in Oklahoma City at 9.45.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Withdrawing eight dollars. And they got my signature on my withdrawal slip.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright Atticus, you're gonna answer a question, you ready? When we fall asleep, where do you think we go?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where do you think your parents go when they fall asleep?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sometimes. What's the weirdest thing that's ever happened to you in a dream? Zombies attacked me. Zombies? Yes. Did they get to you? No. So you fought them off? Yes. Damn. How'd you fight them?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes! Oh my god, I loved that. So, right after that, then you go and fight zombies. After your Spanish prayer. You go and fight zombies.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I sat back on my heels and reached again toward the pile of cloths on the ground beside me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There was a deep wound running at least eight inches from the groin down the length of the thigh from which the blood was gushing in a steady flow. It wasn't spurting though. The femoral artery wasn't cut, which meant there was a good chance of stopping it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What couldn't be stopped was the ooze from the man's belly where the ripping tushes had laid open skin, muscles, mesentery, and gut alike. There were no large vessels severed there, but the intestine was punctured. I could see it plainly through the jagged rent in the man's skin.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This sort of abdominal wound was frequently fatal, even with a modern operating room, sutures and antibiotics readily to hand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The contents of the ruptured gut spilling out into the body cavity simply contaminated the whole area and made infection a deadly certainty.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And here, with nothing but cloves of garlic and yarrow flowers to treat it with.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My gaze met Dougal's as he also looked down at the hideous wound. His lips moved.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then reached forward and deliberately untied the emergency tourniquet I had placed around the man's thigh. He looked at me, challenging me to protest. But I made no move save a small nod.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I could staunch the bleeding, and allow the man to be transported by litter back to the castle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Back to the castle, there to linger in increasing agony as the belly wound festered, until the corruption spread far enough finally to kill him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wollowing perhaps for days in long drawn out pain. A better death perhaps was what Dougal was giving him. To die cleanly under the sky.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His heart's blood staining the same leaves died by the blood of the beast that killed him. I crawled over the damp leaves to Geordi's head and took half his weight on my own arm. It will be better soon, I said, and my voice was steady, as it always was, as it had been trained to be. The pain will be better soon. Aye, it's better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The numb hands were blindly flailing before the man's face.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dougal grasped them firmly between his own, and leaned close, murmuring in the man's ear.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Geordi's back arched suddenly and his heels dug deeply into the muddy ground, his body in violent protest at what his mind had begun already to accept. He gasps deeply from time to time, as a man who is bleeding to death gulps for air.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The men who waited patiently hunkered in the shadow of the trees were silent as the trees themselves.
