{Upper left margin: "Logic 20"}

Ankergrund aller Gewissheit überhaupt." By "Resht", I here understand "rightful authority to give the decision which it claims to give"; and "Gefühl," not precisely what feeling means in English, but a purely subjective feeling of pleasure or pain, which renders no decision except concerning itself. The translator (with the authorization of Dr. Signash, who possibly does not appreciate the exact sense of the English) seems to take "Recht" in the sense of "Richtigheit," and "Gefühl" in the vague English sense, and thus weakens the proposition. Yet even so, so long as this feeling is made the sole evidence of logicality, underlying everyother, it is, to all intents and purposes, made the essence of logicality.

It may be remarked that nobody would care to study logic unless he had already made up his mind that men were so apt to err in their sense
