The word ratio is from the Latin radius (ray
or rod), therefore in its derived significance a
ratio is a rod, and proportion is accordingly an
equilibrium of rods, and thus is the true mean-
ing expressed in the derivation, since propor-
tion is equilibrium between reflected rods
(rays) and refracted rods.
This equilibrium of rods is always a problem
capable of solution, although one requiring
skill and patience. The value, meaning, and
force of x, or true ego, is always the point to
be ascertained.
