Explanatory Note:

He panics, lest this should be permanent. He thinks the present moment will last forever. His worry soon imprisons him behind the bars of the present moment and its misfortune so that he despairs of any change. Fear and worry tear him apart. How can he be otherwise when he does not have the steadying influence of faith and the hope it generates?
