5082. Over the prince of the butlers, and over the prince of the bakers. That this signifies in general from the sensuous things subordinate to the intellectual part and to the will part, is evident from the signification of a “butler,” as being the sensuous subordinate and subject to the intellectual part (of which above, n. 5077); and from the signification of a “baker,” as being the sensuous subordinate and subject to the will part (of which also above, n. 5078); and from the signification of a “prince,” as being what is primary (see n. 1482, 2089, 5044), here in general or in common; for what is primary is also common, because it rules in the rest; for particulars bear relation to primaries as to generals, in order that they may make a one and that no contradiction should appear.
