It never occurred to him as how should it? that he might have commenced undergoing the most marvellous of all changes, one so marvellous, indeed, that for a man to foreknow its result or understand what he was passing through, would be more strange than that a caterpillar should recognise in the rainbow-winged butterfly hovering over the flower at whose leaf he was gnawing, the perfected idea of his own potential self I mean the change of being born again.
