<p>In order to answer this objection we must revert to that distinction between ''thing'', ''image'', and ''form'' established in the lecture upon the definition of logic.  A representation is anything which may be regarded as standing for something else.  Matter or thing is that for which a representation might stand prescinded from all that could constitute a relation with any representation.  A form is the relation between a representation and thing prescinded from both representation and thing.  An image is a representation prescinded from thing and form.</p>

<p>Derived directly from this abstractest triad was another less abstract.  This is Object—Equivalent-Representation—Logos.  The ''object'' is a thing corresponding to a representation regarded as actual.  The equivalent representation is a representation in any language equivalent to a representation regarded as actual.  A Logos is a form constituting the relation between an object and a representation regarded as actual.</p>
