Four-foldness of Passions
: (109)
With respect to mass points, the maximal variform (or the last variform of the last super-variform) of creeper-like pride has a value of infinite times lesser than its minimal variform (or the first variform of the first supervariform). However, with respect to intensity, its maximal variform is, as a rule, infinite times more than the minimal variform.
[The term 'variform' means group of mass points or intensity of intensity).
With respect to mass points, as a rule, the wood-like pride is infinite times lesser than the creeper-like pride. Similarly, the other varieties of pride like the rock-pillar or bone-like) should be described as below:
(a)
with respect to mass points, the bone-like pride is infinite times lesser than the wood-like pride. with respect to mass points, the rock-like pride is infinite times lesser than the bone-like pride.
(b)
With respect to the group of intensity and the variforms, the values of the remaining three varieties of pride are respectively infinite times more, as a rule, than their preceding varieties. (This means that the variforms and intensity of wood-like pride has a value of infinite times the creeper-like pride and the same for bonelike pride and mountain-rock-like pride have a value infinite times the wood-like and bone-like pride respectively).
