Something McCarthy?

Would seem typical of genre garbage

No, but not worlds apart from him.

>>8171712
I should add that I removed the less frequent words, too. The word "fresh" only appears once in this text, for example.

Come know see
hand fear night go
say blood?
thought think
death, dead
great, give!
speak day, hear nature
look, knock, eye sleep
leave, love
heart take
grace poor, put show
strange, worthy
word true.
Lie.

new testament

>>8171729
Come and see, and then you'll know.
My hand does not fear to go into the night.
You say that there will be blood?
That's a thought to think over.
Death is great, and he will give to the dead.
You can speak with me about that day, but you only hear of its nature from others.
All you have to do is look, knock upon it, eye it, and sleep.
Leave love aside and take heart.
Grace may be poor, but she put on a good show.
It is strange to be worthy of a true word.
Or is it a lie?

Man this reminds me of that part in If On a Winter's Night a Traveler.


I'm guessing Poe by the way.

I'd guess T. S. Eliot - The Wasteland

I'll end the suspense. It's actually Macbeth.

Tonally, your guesses were pretty close to the mark.

Notice that "blood" is more frequent than "think," and "fear," "night," and "time" are more common than the word "go." He's certainly sending a message.

Blood was common in theater at the time. Theater was for the masses and the masses were and still are bloodthirsty savages.
