For if they say we are to do so without presentation, they will be granting that presentation is superfluous for judging, inasmuch as they will be stating that objects can be judged without it; while if they say ‟by the aid of presentation,” how will they select the presentation which they are adopting for the purpose of judging all the other presentations?
