The basin is a place for describing water as turbid ***, which is a science that is specific to humans
The water in the spring is clear and has no turbidity *** and the bottom shows what is turbid in it
The reason for the ringing is that thought produces it *** So seek from knowledge what It rises above thought
If imagination comes to it, it is bound *** by thought in the world of bodies and images
And thought from its forms will sometimes save it *** but it is not infallible from harm
So seek it by remembrance, not by thought, and you will gain it ** * Impeccable, free from the blemish of others.
