text_original: Caspar had permitted it to pass out of his mind, under the impression that _they could not make a balloon_; and Karl had arrived at the same conclusion; but only from a belief that they _had not the materials_ with which to make one. Given the materials, Karl felt quite equal to the construction of a balloon  a rude one, it is true; but one which might have served the purpose for which they required it.
