          	Reduction BoRn of No Last chance. “Without Con-

          	Of Contradiction. | “.... for it is not by Measure that
          	He gives the SpiRit!” And “No one receives anything,
          	Except that Heaven gives it.” | To whet, to wit

          	Who’s AbsuRd! | “AnotheR England I have seen,
          	Another London with its ToweR, another Thames—
          	And Other Hills...” | TheRe aRe moRe GRassy Knolls
