Neither in Algebra
nor in Geometry
should any proposition
be delivered
without
indication of the
use. This is
necessary to the
justification of
the Mathematician
for if it is of no
use why plague
us with it.

Every book is an
If it has
evil: for to some
body or other every
book is a plague.
A great book says
the proverb is a
great evil. But
of all great book-
evils a book of
algebra or geometry
is surely
one of the greatest
evils: for it is one
of the greatest plagues.

Oh, but it has
a thousand uses!
it is called for on a thousand occasions. well, if it has,
it at any rate

Use if not immediate

Of use - how?
by being predictable
if, applicable to,
some article or other
in the catalogue of
real existence —
which are either
substances, spaces
or motions

These, one or
other of them are
the real subjects of
every mathematical
proposiion.

not true of one
or other of these

Of use in what

If not immediate
at least remote
If not of itself
applicable to any
real existences
as yet known
as apt between the

subjects of considration,
at
least by its relation
to some
other mathematical
propositions which
are themselves of use: by
its applicability
to, by its
being true of some
existences which
though as yet
they have not come
into consideration
