In lieu of an abstract, here is a brief excerpt of the content:

XXVI. METRICALLY 'Friendly creatures, those religious beasts; not difficult at all!' the rabbit remarked. 'Emotional, affective approach, long and difficult,' explained the owl; 'only the specially gifted ever get away from their imaginary "selves" in spite of affectivity.' 'Why is that so ?' asked the rabbit. 'Looking for God where God is not as God—that is objectively/ the owl snapped; 'a positive way is interminable !' 'Which way, then, is best?' queried the rabbit. 'There is no "best",' the owl answered, 'just roundabout or direct!' 'And the most direct?' the rabbit inquired eagerly. 'Depends on conditioning,' the owl replied; 'only conditioning intervenes.' 'Then, conditioning being suitable . . . ?' the rabbit insisted. 'The metric, presumably,' the owl answered. 'And what is that?' the rabbit asked with surprise. 'I am the inclusive dimension,' the owl hooted; 'at right-angles to each and all of the others; what could be simpler or more obvious ?' 59 XXVI.

' "You"s are made up of my three subsidiary directions of measurement, length, breadth, and height, which constitute volume extended in space-time,' replied the owl, 'whereof the phenomenal universe which consists of my apperceiving.' 'Is that so?' the rabbit exclaimed with a skip of surprise. 'How very curious!' 'Obvious, rather than curious,' the owl hooted. 'What else could "you"s possibly be?' 'But from where are they measured ?' murmured the rabbit. 'From Here, of course,' the owl explained, 'always from Here, This, and Now—from the ubiquitous Centre/ 'But where is the ubiquitous Centre, and of what?' asked the rabbit. 'Everywhere,' the owl explained patiently; 'there is no "where" where it is not.' 'How is that?' asked the rabbit, scratching an ear. 'Because, of course,' continued the owl, 'there is no "where" where it could be, nor any "thing" of which it could be the centre/ 'And however is that?' 'It is because the centre of Infinity must be ubiquitous and Here, and the centre of Intemporality eternally Now. The universe has as many centres as there are sentientbeings to perceive It/ 'But all that is only measurements,' the rabbit objected, 'which make shapes and apparent "things"; what is in them, what activates them ?' T am, of course,' snorted the owl, T do: what else is there to be or to do anything?' 60 XXVI.
