Shelton is silent. He is overwhelmed. He has never before met this level of intelligence. He feels like a child with a hideous algebraic problem, whose despair is resolved by the huge wisdom of an adult. He had no key, it was impossible; the key is provided, all is plain. Gently has smashed the impasse, shown how the terms fall into place. All, that Shelton had stared at so hard, is suddenly coherent and related.
