You examine the candle for a ninth time. You consider the sheep again. Well, if the sheep was put in a pot of molten wax, what would happen? Surely I would notice the sheep, you think to yourself.
But... what if it was a very large pot? But wouldn't it still be separate? Maybe if it was dead and ground into a dust... Would it still be a sheep?
These questions torment your mind, as you wrack your brain for a suitable answer.
