Though no abbreviation
without some sort
of equivalence is true;
not so no equivalent
without abbreviation.

Sole use of this mention
of equivalences,
showing that the
operation performed
by the statement of
their existence, or
say the indication
of them is not less
simple and familiar
than the operation by which
two terms are
stated as being
synonymous terms.
21.
Grand use of indication
of equivalences
indication of equivalence
as between a
combination of known
and unknown quantities,
and a completely
known one: this
indication being in
many cases practically
useful,
yet at the same
time in appearance
so difficult
as to appear
to the uninitiated
impossible.

Of the relation termed
equivalence indication
is indeed
given by the word
equation: but, so
narrow is the application
made
of it that no
suspicion is produced
by it, of
the equivalence
having place in
those other cases
and that the sole
case in which the
word equation
is employed is —
where the equivalence
is as it
were in disguise.
Just as a person
is the same,
whether his costume
be disguised
or not.
