When letters are expressive, with distinct meanings, and appear in a particular order of sequence,—they come to be known as ‘word’, ‘sentence’ and such groups; it is these that have been so spoken of as ‘aggregates—and it has been shown that all this—expressiveness, distinct meanings and order of sequence—is impossible in the case of words not emanating from personalities.—Hence the invariable concomitance (premiss, put forward by the buddhist) remains unshaken.—(2782-2783)
