“As soon as I have put it into order I intend to write and if possible to publish a work on parallels. At this moment, it is not yet finished, but the way which I have followed promises me with certainty the attainment of my aim, if it is at all attainable. It is not yet attained, but I have discovered such magnificent things that I am myself astonished at the result. It would forever be a pity, if they were lost. When you see them, my father, you yourself will concede it. Now I cannot say more, only so much that from nothing I have created another wholly new world. All that I have hitherto sent you compares to it as a house of cards to a castle.”
