Diamond pops into a Catholic church while in town in order to take a break. He writes to Estelle that, "while seated there, alone, in the strange hush that only religion can bring about, the thought of death overcame me." He then describes looking into the Bible for some sort of inspiration, and tries to interpret the Biblical verse, "Deliver me from mine enemies, Protect me from them that persecute me."
