The descent of the sun: A cycle of birth, A Sleep and a Dream., part 1, sentence 60

But in a dream I saw a lotus fall from heaven, and I heard a divine voice saying to me: Do not hurry, but wait: for there shall come to you a husband, from the Land of the Lotus of the Sun. For he was your husband in a former birth, and you shall know him by a sign.

Who acts: I, divine voice, husband, you · What happens: see, hear, say, not hurry, wait, come · To what, where: lotus fall, dream, divine voice, me, husband, you · Speech: someone speaks here
