our whole knowledge and experience. At the beginning of
S. lxxxii. and S. lxxxi, other Signs were used, to lead
up to the arguments there advanced. Here the two Signs
are: (1) the Sky being rent asunder and giving up its
secrets, and (2) the Earth being flattened out from the
globe it is, and giving up its secrets. See the following
