Speaking of the Royal Road from emotion to vocation in mathematics,
let us pause to remember this critical transition from another November:

| In November 1619, I had a dream involving the Seventh Ode of Ausonius, which begins:
|
| Quod vitae sectabor iter? --
|
| "What road in life shall I follow?"
|
| René Descartes, "Experimenta", CSM 1, p. 4.
