[lit-ideas] Re: Auerbach on Mimesis

PE:

Old Plotinus
He thought it a minus
For all that is said and done
Is ultimately less than One
Yeah, sure, that's brill too, and perhaps more informative, but you did have to add an extra line, didn't you? (brevity is the soul of wit remember), nevertheless here's my moresome: 

Old Plotinus
He thought it a minus
Whatever is less than one.
All else is emanation,
Like light from the sun.

Triple brill!
