Pursuing the course of this geometric vein,
let us now return to the 3-adic relation L
that is given by this aggregate of triples:

<a, b, c>
<a, b, d>
<a, c, d>

Figure 2 shows the 3-adic relation L as a geometric configuration
embedded in the 3-dimensional space X = X_1 x X_2 x X_3 ~=~ !A!^3,
rendered here in 3-dimensional perspective drawing.
