That's interesting. I thought you were about to say that within the incoherent jumble of symbols is some nonsymbolic, direct but fleeting grasp of truth which is hard to put into words. What is the "original glimpse" in this analogy, the surface-level pragmatic glance that takes our conceptions for granted, or an epiphany underlying our attempts to carve up the world with concepts?
