b: "he asked himself where it had come from and how; the past provided no explanation, and the future could not justify it."

c: "how could he have dreamed up this incredible happiness? he or any other human being? it was a strange, unique happiness, as though it were a privet secret he had been given."

d: "how was it that this incredible happiness had overwhelmed him? how long would he have to carry it on his shoulders? would it keep depriving him of work, friends, sleep and peace of mind."
