The word fire in its two meanings may, appropriately, be called 

 the aitio-fire and the syntheto-fire, in their relation to our perceptions : 

 the one being the aition or source of our perceptions of the fire, the 

 other the syntheton or structure formed by building these perceptions 

 together. 



Or, they may be called the onto-fire and the skio-fire in their rela- 

 tion to one another : the one being the reality, the other a shadow cast 

 by it in a particular way.
