In the nodal lines of measures this determinateness is at the same time posited as specifying; the abstract measureless sublates itself into qualitative determinateness; the new measure relation into which the original passes over is measureless with respect to the latter but, in it, it equally is a quality that exists for itself; what is thus posited is the alternation of specific existences with one another and equally of them with relations that still remain merely quantitative an alternation ad infinitum.
