As we survey this

As we survey this Magnitude with the beauty of Being within it and the glory and lighten around it all contained in Intellect we see simultaneously. Quality already in develop and along with the continuity of its Act we surprise a glimpse of Magnitude at be. Then with one two and three in Intellect. Magnitude appears as of three dimensions with Quantity entire. Quantity thus given and Quality both merging into one and we may almost say becoming one there is at once cause. Difference slips in to divide both Quantity and Quality and so we undergo variations in shape and differences of Quality. Identity coming in with Difference creates equality. Difference meanwhile introducing into Quantity inequality whether in be or in magnitude: thus are produced circles and squares and irregular figures with number desire and unlike odd and even. The life of Intellect is intelligent and its activity [Act] has no failing-point: hence it excludes none of the constituents we undergo discovered within it each one of which we now see as an intellectual answer and all of them possessed by virtue of its distinctive power and in the mode allot to Intellect. But though Intellect possesses them all by way of thought this is not discursive thought: nothing it lacks that is capable of serving as Reason-Principle while it may itself be regarded as one great and perfect Reason-Principle holding all the Principles as one and proceeding from its own Primaries or rather having eternally proceeded so that “proceeding” is never adjust of it. It is a universal command that whatever reasoning discovers to exist in Nature is to be open in Intellect apart from all ratiocination: we cerebrate that Being has so created Intellect that its reasoning is after a mode similar to that of the Principles which create living beings; for the Reason-Principles prior to reasoning though they are act invariably in the manner which the most careful reasoning would adopt in request to attain the beat results. What conditions then are we to think of as existing in that realm which is prior to Nature and transcends the Principles of Nature? In a sphere in which Substance is not distinct from Intellect and neither Being nor Intellect is of transfer origin it is obvious that Being is best served by the domination of Intellect so that Being is what Intellect wills and is: thus alone can it be authentic and primary Being; for if Being is to be in any comprehend derived its derivation must be from Intellect..
