 1 Parme|          of the pairs, the sum is three; and two is an even number,
 2 Parme|        and two is an even number, three an odd; and two units exist
 3 Parme|          there are twice two; and three units exist thrice, and
 4 Parme|        therefore there are thrice three, and taken together they
 5 Parme|          together they give twice three and thrice two: we have
 6 Parme|     required to make one contact; three objects make two contacts;
 7 Parme| arithmetical meaning. That one is three or three one, is a proposition
 8 Parme|     meaning. That one is three or three one, is a proposition which
 9 Parme|        has ever meant to say that three and one are to be taken
10 Parme|          number one is the number three, so neither can we be persuaded
11 Parme|           pair, the whole becomes three?~Yes.~And three are odd,
12 Parme|           becomes three?~Yes.~And three are odd, and two are even?~
13 Parme|           twice, and if there are three there must be thrice; that
14 Parme|         makes two, and thrice one three?~Certainly.~There are two,
15 Parme|          twice two; and there are three, and there is thrice, and
16 Parme|    therefore there must be thrice three?~Of course.~If there are
17 Parme|           Of course.~If there are three and twice, there is twice
18 Parme|         and twice, there is twice three; and if there are two and
19 Parme|          be a whole without these three? And if any one of them
20 Parme|           number of terms will be three, and the contacts two?~Yes.~
