But it was the negation of light; objects were presented to my eyes, if I may say so, without any medium, in such a manner that if there had been a prism in the room I should have seen no colours represented in it. BUT IT WAS THE NEGATION OF LIGHT OBJECTS WERE PRESENTED TO MY EYES IF I MAY SAY SO WITHOUT ANY MEDIUM IN SUCH A MANNER THAT IF THERE HAD BEEN A PRISM IN THE ROOM I SHOULD HAVE SEEN NO COLOURS REPRESENTED IN IT
yes. The skin, and the flesh, and the muscles, and the bones, and the firm structure of the human body that I had thought to be unchangeable, and permanent as adamant, began to melt and dissolve. “I know that the body may be separated into its elements by external agencies, but I should have refused to believe what I saw. For here there was some internal force, of which I knew nothing, that caused dissolution and change. “Here too was all the work by which man had been made repeated before my eyes. I saw the form waver from sex to sex, dividing itself from itself, and then again reunited. Then I saw the body descend to the beasts whence it ascended, and that which was on the heights go down to the depths, even to the abyss of all being. The principle of life, which makes organism, always remained, while the outward form changed. “The light within the room had turned to blackness, not the darkness of night, in which objects are seen dimly, for I could see clearly and without difficulty. IKE INK TRANSFORMED BEFORE MY EYES THE SKIN AND THE FLESH AND THE MUSCLES AND THE BONES AND THE FIRM STRUCTURE OF THE HUMAN BODY THAT I HAD THOUGHT TO BE UNCHANGEABLE AND PERMANENT AS ADAMANT BEGAN TO MELT AND DISSOLVE I KNOW THAT THE BODY MAY BE SEPARATED INTO ITS ELEMENTS BY EXTERNAL AGENCIES BUT I SHOULD HAVE REFUSED TO BELIEVE WHAT I SAW FOR HERE THERE WAS SOME INTERNAL FORCE OF WHICH I KNEW NOTHING THAT CAUSED DISSOLUTION AND CHANGE HERE TOO WAS ALL THE WORK BY WHICH MAN HAD BEEN MADE REPEATED BEFORE MY EYES I SAW THE FORM WAVER FROM SEX TO SEX DIVIDING ITSELF FROM ITSELF AND THEN AGAIN REUNITED THEN I SAW THE BODY DESCEND TO THE BEASTS WHENCE IT ASCENDED AND THAT WHICH WAS ON THE HEIGHTS GO DOWN TO THE DEPTHS EVEN TO THE ABYSS OF ALL BEING THE PRINCIPLE OF LIFE WHICH MAKES ORGANISM ALWAYS REMAINED WHILE THE OUTWARD FORM CHANGED THE LIGHT WITHIN THE ROOM HAD TURNED TO BLACKNESS NOT THE DARKNESS OF NIGHT IN WHICH OBJECTS ARE SEEN DIMLY FOR I COULD SEE CLEARLY AND WITHOUT DIFFICULTY
