Behold the infallible confirmation of the series, 2, 4, 8, 16: is not this a geometrical progression? Is not this⁠—if I might quote my Lord’s own words⁠—“strictly according to Analogy”?

Again, was I not taught by my Lord that as in a Line there are two bounding Points, and in a Square there are four bounding Lines, so in a Cube there must be six bounding Squares? Behold once more the confirming series, 2, 4, 6: is not this an arithmetical progression? And consequently does it not of necessity follow that the more divine offspring of the divine Cube in the Land of Four Dimensions, must have 8 bounding Cubes: and is not this also, as my Lord has taught me to believe, “strictly according to Analogy”?
