For example‚ in line 41 on page 108‚ it says “But Nothing man did throw down all by Sin”‚ which goes with the statement above that says we are completely sinful. In line 42‚ it says “And darkened that light Gem in him”‚ which it is saying that sin is affecting their life and them on the inside. Line 42 is also restating part of the statement above‚ where it says “Sin has affected all parts of man. The heart‚ emotions

More specifically‚ the changes that we are referring to as being "undergone" here are not changes in circumstances

When I first heard the song "Fire and Rain" by James Taylor‚ it was shortly after my grandfather had passed away. The death of my grandfather was one of the most difficult times of my life because it was the first time I truly experienced lost. By experience I mean‚ I was old enough to understand what was happening around me. Someone I thought would always be there‚ simply wasn’t. Every loss I have experienced since has always opened the flood gates with memories of this event in my life. The song
