Paul said he came knowing only one thing, the cross. Neville draws it: the horizontal line is time - you seem to begin in your mother's womb and end in the grave - and the vertical line intersecting it is infinite states, like Jacob's ladder. At any point on the line of time a man can move up or down. Time flows, and the state one is identified with unfolds in it; so a change of state need take no more than thirty seconds, and once you have entered it you do nothing more, for the outer must move by compulsion of the inner power. Blake: eternity is in love with the productions of time.

Look on the horizontal line of the cross as time. Intersecting this vertical line and call that infinite states, like Jacobs ladder. At any section of time I can move up or down.
