For the elephant now walks round. And thus did the song proceed, forever citing the Fact itself as the Explanation of the Fact. That & the philosophy of the Ding an Sich which meaneth, the Thing-in-Itself. And he said, That is a Fool Song, and i hardly worth four years of Colledge. “And I said, Consider the Ding an Sich, the Elephant. He in the Thenis. He is tangible, ponderable, undeniable Reality. But behold how he re solveth himself into an Antithesis, even as Hegel taught. He is not Statick. He walketh aroupd. That should prepare us for an, Hegelian Synthesis. And he is not unrelated. He is preceded by the Band, and! followed by the Monkeys in their Cage.” That suggesteth Einstein's Rela-| ativity. But consider also the Boys. Wherefore should they keep away from the Cage of Monkeys? Is that theorem referable to Ethicks or to Casuistry or to Politickal Economy? If it were not for the Boys with their Peanuts and their Quarters, the Elephant were not here, but in Ethiopia. And in that event, would h the same Elephant?
