"battle attack" of the lancers stands in close associative connection with the "Russians," hence the transition to Czar. By sound-association the patient again finds the way back to "bazaar," a very characteristic train of thought in the obscure ideation of dementia præcox. The sentences "the bazaars are extraordinarily good business," and "the Czars have their incomes from these bazaars," in which is the sound-association Czar—bazaar, give to the patient an apparently sensible connection. She says "the sons of the highest in Russia represented as Czars, therefore the word bazaar." This formation is another "contamination." Patient "affirms" all bazaars as her property just as she "affirms" all good business houses. She is a Czarina just as she is all the other eminent personalities.
The special determination of this dignity emanates perhaps from the lancers. These two diverse trains of thought apparently flow together by clang-association, and so we have the Czars as owners of bazaars. As the "battle attack" of the lancers results in a son this son becomes a Czar and is furnished with a bazaar.
The strong tendency of dreams to analogical formations leads, just as in the other sexual symbols, to the formation of a second delusional birth, a little girl is born out of the mouth. It wears "a little brown dress with a little black apron." That is the way the patient generally dressed. This way of dressing has since long been displeasing to her; hence she often complains, and in her dreams she has already "affirmed" a very rich wardrobe. The passage "just as sewn together with rags" refers to this. The similarity of mother and daughter is crowned by the fact that the child is already slightly paralyzed. It is therefore subjected to the same afflictions as the patient. The child was allotted to her "as a representative," that is, by virtue of which resemblance it, so to speak, takes upon itself the vicissitudes of the patient. Through it the patient becomes absolved from the suffering of the insane asylum; hence patient can in a transposing sense say "the end of the insane asylum came out of my mouth." In another rather remotely transposed sense patient says that the child is the "Socrates representation." As will be recalled the patient identifies herself with Socrates, as he, just as she, was unjustly imprisoned and suffered. He was impris-
