      Mas, se o testemunho aponta para o dedo, grande e pequeno, grosso e fino, pesado e leve, a verificação não considera estas qualidades vinculadas ao objeto da percepção, mas à essência, desligada do objeto, da grandeza, da pequeneza etc.
      But if the testimony points to the finger, big and small, thick and thin, heavy and light, the verification doesn't consider these qualities to be linked to the object of perception, but to the essence, detached from the object, of greatness, smallness, etc.
