3. The point of intelligence is precisely in the
same case. In regard to Judges so called, in regard to Judges by profession, the question is
concerning degrees of intelligence, concerning degrees
of superiority in intelligence. Here all superiority
is out of the question. Here with your
eyes open, you take up with the lowest and
