distinguish larger structures of manifold
confirmation: long rows, sometimes more closely
fitted together all twining and twisting in snake
like motion. But look! What was that? One of the
snakes had seized hold of its own tail, and the
form whirled mockingly before my eyes. As if by a
flash of lightning I awoke; and this time also I
spent the rest of the night in working out the rest
of the hypothesis. Let us learn to dream,
gentlemen, then perhaps we shall find the truth...
But let us beware of publishing our dreams till
they have been tested by waking understanding. ”
