      Even when the legend is of an actual historical personage, the deeds of victory are rendered, not in lifelike, but indreamlike figurations; for the point is not that such-and-such was done on earth; the point is that, before such-and-such could be done on earth, this other, more important, primary thing had to be brought to pass within the labyrinth that we all know and visit in our dreams.
