    N.B. The use of 'anaphoric' [10.52], here, is incorrect. He means 'analeptic'. Analepsis is a referring to the past. What he might have wanted to say is that the pronoun 'it' has no antecedent - except for the title, which of course raises questions of where the work begins, where the incipient is.
