Next let us take the Pluvium presentation. We again mark with an
asterisk in Table C the possibilities inferred from the Mala-Vesper
solution, and take the projections those possibilities would produce.
The additional projections are again marked (†). There are twelve
Pluvium projections altogether, viz. Bidens, Ostrum, Cudo, Cardo,
Luctus, Verbum, Urna, Moles, Vitta, Thyrsus, Securis, Cervix. Again we
compare these with the given Pluvium projections, and find three are
absent, viz. Ostrum, Cardo, Thyrsus. Hence the tessaracts implied by
Ostrum and Cardo and Thyrsus cannot be in our shape, viz. Uncus, Ocrea,
Crates, nor Thyrsus itself. Excluding these four from the seventeen
possibilities of the Mala-Vesper solution we have left the thirteen
tessaracts: Orcus, Pallor, Tessera, Lacerta, Cudo, Frenum, Polus,
Plebs, Cura, Penates, Moles, Vitta, Urna. This we call the
Mala-Vesper-Pluvium solution.
Lastly, we have to consider whether these thirteen tessaracts are
consistent with the given Lar projections. We mark them again on Table D
with an asterisk, and we find that the projections are exactly those
given, viz. Frenum, Plebs, Moles, Urna, Cura, Vitta, Polus, Penates.
Therefore, we have not to exclude any of the thirteen, and can infer
that they constitute the shape, which produces the four different given
views or projections.
In fine, any shape in space consists of the possibilities common to the
projections of its parts upon the boundaries of that space, whatever be
the number of its dimensions. Hence the simple rule for the
determination of the shape would be to write down all the possibilities
of the sets of projections, and then cancel all those possibilities
which are not common to all. But the process adopted above is much
preferable, as through it we may realize the gradual delimitation of the
shape view by view. For once more we must remind ourselves that our
great object is, not to arrive at results by symbolical operations, but
to realize those results piece by piece through realized processes.
