The fact that our system breaks this
up into three steps shows goes to show that our main purpose, that
of dissecting reasoning into its simplest elements,
has been , in some measure, at least, attained.

It still remains to treat the blank and
the blot in the same manner.

But when we undertake to predicate of the
blank as definitum any definition we
find that there is no specific permission

although the whole possibility of writing
graphs depends upon it. That has therefore
to be passed over. As to the predication
of the definition concerning the definitum,
this renders it permissible for a blank
