Alternating rhythmic periods are the elements of 

 rhythmic form; a rhythmic form is therefore a 

 succession of elements. Harmonic components are 

 the elements of harmonic form; a harmonic form is 

 therefore a concurrence of elements. Every such con- 

 currence occupies a rhythm-period: thus when we 

 relate one such concurrence to another we are moving 

 from one rhythmic period to another, and this con- 

 currence (harmony, form and relation in space) and 

 succession (rhythm, form and relation in time) are 

 indissolubly combined. It is therefore perfectly nat- 

 ural that regularly alternating rhythm-periods of 

 cadence and repose should have caused corresponding 

 concomitant alternations of regnant harmonies in 

 cadence and repose, since both in rhythm and in har- 

 mony cadence is tend and repose is end of tend. One 

 illustration will suffice.
