JGB 36, the causality of the will and the will to power

The passage

The close of aphorism 36. The transcription reads »wie es in ein Satz ist«, which is not German; the project reads it as »wie es mein Satz ist«, a transcription slip, renders it "as is my proposition" with the emendation marked in brackets in the translation, and has not verified the reading against a printed edition. »wirkend« is rendered "working" and »Wirkung« "effect", to keep the pair visible. The whole passage is conditional in form (»Gesetzt ... so hätte man«; »sie wäre«), which the readings on c-nietzsche-world-would-be-will-to-power turn on.
