monad

The me is a monad, that is, an indivisible unity; of this there can be no doubt.

From the monad proceeds an indefinite duad, which is subordinate to the monad as to its cause.

Genius watches the monad through all his masks as he performs the metempsychosis of nature.

In short, each monad is a little Leibniz for ever increasing the sum of its knowledge.

All this carbon has played its part, and many parts in its time, as animal existences from monad up to man.
