But as I shall have to describe all sorts of curious adventures, in which they and other animals played conspicuous parts, I will not further particularise them at present. As I was born in the country, it may be concluded that my father and mother resided there. To my father, Barry Desmond, might have been applied those touching lines of the poet Campbell:
This point has been set forth above under Sutra 3; the present Sutra is meant to emphasise and particularise it. And if you say as the man and the stone; thus also. Here the following view might be urged.
