"Heidegger waxes poetic."
After carefully cleansing the poetic, he allows it
to dry. Holding a cloth, he applies the first
layer of wax ("ursprüngliche Wachsschicht") to the
poetic using a firm, even, linear stroke
("Methodenlehre des linearen Streichens "). This
is followed by a second layer of wax ("Ich
verfehlte einen Punkt."). Then he allows the wax
to set ("Zeitraum des Wachses, das selbst ist").
After the poetic is covered with a deepening
opaque gloss, Heidegger applies a chamois cloth to
it, rubbing the wax in a rapid circular motion
("extrem schnelle Kreisbewegung") until it has
reached its highest possible shine ("der hellste
mögliche Glanz von Poesie"). Pleased with himself,
he writes about it later that night in his diary.
