Week after week and month after month elapsed, without anything to dispel the painful incertitude that hung over every part of this enterprise. In this, as appears to me, I was successful enough; for, since I endeavored to discover the falsehood or incertitude of the propositions I examined, not by feeble conjectures, but by clear and certain reasonings, I met with nothing so doubtful as not to yield some conclusion of adequate certainty, although this were merely the inference, that the matter in question contained nothing certain. The incertitude which attends closely every artistic endeavour is absent from its regulated enterprise. |
