The Arch-preposterous
âMeanwhile bear in mind that in the enormous Khrh or workshop of Gornahoor Harharkh there were, besides the already mentioned Hrhaharhtzaha, several other large independent appliances, and among them two quite special what are called âLifechakansâ which Gornahoor himself called âKrhrrhihirhi.â
âIt is interesting to note that your favorites also have something like this âLifechakanâ or âKrhrrhihirhiâ; and they name such an apparatus a âdynamo.â
âThere was also there, apart, another independent large appliance, which, as it afterwards appeared, was a âSoloohnorahoonaâ of special construction, or as your favorites would say, a âpump-of-complex-construction-for-exhausting-atmosphere-to-the-point-of-absolute-vacuum.â
âWhile I was looking over all this with surprise, Gornahoor Harharkh himself approached the said pump of special construction and with his left wing moved one of its parts, owing to which a certain mechanism began to work in the pump. He then approached us again and, pointing with the same special feather of his right wing to the largest Lifechakan, or Krhrrhihirhi, or dynamo, further continued his explanations.
âHe said, âBy means of this special appliance, there are first âsucked-inâ separately from the atmosphere, or from any intra- or surplanetary formation, all the three independent parts of the Omnipresent-Active-Element-Okidanokh present in it, and only afterwards when in a certain way these separate independent parts artificially reblended in the Krhrrhihirhi into a single whole, does the Okidanokh, now in its usual state, flow and is it concentrated there, in that âcontainerââââsaying which, he again with the same special feather pointed to something very much like what is called a âgenerator.â
