There were people who had trances, I had surely heard of them, and they followed strange laws of which we could know nothing, they obeyed the tangled orders of their own sub-conscious minds.

The dead man touch'd me from the past,
And all at once it seem'd at last

The blows of Death. At length my trance
Was cancell'd, stricken thro' with doubt. — Alfred Tennyson

And in a mad trance
Strike with our spirit's knife

Like worms within
Our living clay — Percy Bysshe Shelley
