Read as: displayed formula: formula row one: the union of Gamma, and the set containing formula A syntactically derives the conditional whose antecedent is formula C; and whose consequent is formula D with argument constant a. The induction hypothesis therefore gives formula row two: Gamma syntactically derives the conditional whose antecedent is formula A; and whose consequent is open parenthesis, the conditional whose antecedent is formula C; and whose consequent is formula D with argument constant a, close parenthesis. Next, formula row three: no premises syntactically derives the conditional whose antecedent is open parenthesis, the conditional whose antecedent is formula A; and whose consequent is open parenthesis, the conditional whose antecedent is formula C; and whose consequent is formula D with argument constant a, close parenthesis, close parenthesis; and whose consequent is open parenthesis, the conditional whose antecedent is open parenthesis, the conjunction of formula A and formula C, close parenthesis; and whose consequent is formula D with argument constant a, close parenthesis. By this formula and modus ponens, we get formula row four: Gamma syntactically derives the conditional whose antecedent is open parenthesis, the conjunction of formula A and formula C, close parenthesis; and whose consequent is formula D with argument constant a. Since the eigenvariable condition still applies, we can add a step to this derivation justified by the quantifier rule, and get formula row five: Gamma syntactically derives the conditional whose antecedent is open parenthesis, the conjunction of formula A and formula C, close parenthesis; and whose consequent is for every variable x, formula D with argument variable x. We also have formula row six: no premises syntactically derives the conditional whose antecedent is open parenthesis, the conditional whose antecedent is open parenthesis, the conjunction of formula A and formula C, close parenthesis; and whose consequent is for every variable x, formula D with argument variable x, close parenthesis; and whose consequent is open parenthesis, the conditional whose antecedent is formula A; and whose consequent is open parenthesis, the conditional whose antecedent is formula C; and whose consequent is for every variable x, formula D with argument variable x, close parenthesis, close parenthesis. So, by modus ponens, formula row seven: Gamma syntactically derives the conditional whose antecedent is formula A; and whose consequent is open parenthesis, the conditional whose antecedent is formula C; and whose consequent is for every variable x, formula D with argument variable x, close parenthesis.
Means here: The expression read 'formula row one: the union of Gamma, and the set containing formula A syntactically derives the conditional whose antecedent is formula C; and whose consequent is formula D with argument constant a The source then says that the induction hypothesis applies, that is, we have that formula row two: Gamma syntactically derives the conditional whose antecedent is formula A; and whose consequent is open parenthesis, the conditional whose antecedent is formula C; and whose consequent is formula D with argument constant a, close parenthesis The source then invokes formula row three: no premises syntactically derives the conditional whose antecedent is open parenthesis, the conditional whose antecedent is formula A; and whose consequent is open parenthesis, the conditional whose antecedent is formula C; and whose consequent is formula D with argument constant a, close parenthesis, close parenthesis; and whose consequent is open parenthesis, the conditional whose antecedent is open parenthesis, the conjunction of formula A and formula C, close parenthesis; and whose consequent is formula D with argument constant a, close parenthesis By this result and modus ponens, the source obtains formula row four: Gamma syntactically derives the conditional whose antecedent is open parenthesis, the conjunction of formula A and formula C, close parenthesis; and whose consequent is formula D with argument constant a The source next notes that the eigenvariable condition still applies, we can add a step to this derivation justified by the quantifier rule, and get formula row five: Gamma syntactically derives the conditional whose antecedent is open parenthesis, the conjunction of formula A and formula C, close parenthesis; and whose consequent is for every variable x, formula D with argument variable x The source next gives formula row six: no premises syntactically derives the conditional whose antecedent is open parenthesis, the conditional whose antecedent is open parenthesis, the conjunction of formula A and formula C, close parenthesis; and whose consequent is for every variable x, formula D with argument variable x, close parenthesis; and whose consequent is open parenthesis, the conditional whose antecedent is formula A; and whose consequent is open parenthesis, the conditional whose antecedent is formula C; and whose consequent is for every variable x, formula D with argument variable x, close parenthesis, close parenthesis The source then applies modus ponens to obtain formula row seven: Gamma syntactically derives the conditional whose antecedent is formula A; and whose consequent is open parenthesis, the conditional whose antecedent is formula C; and whose consequent is for every variable x, formula D with argument variable x, close parenthesis' preserves every printed formula row and every intervening proof transition in source order.

So, by the chain proposition, we know that formula row three: the conditional whose antecedent is open parenthesis, the conjunction of for every variable x, formula A with argument variable x and for every variable y, formula B with argument variable y, close parenthesis; and whose consequent is formula A with argument constant a The source then says that this formula is derivable.

Using an appropriate instance of the conjunction-introduction axiom and two applications of modus ponens, we see that formula row seven: the conditional whose antecedent is open parenthesis, the conjunction of for every variable x, formula A with argument variable x and for every variable y, formula B with argument variable y, close parenthesis; and whose consequent is open parenthesis, the conjunction of formula A with argument constant a and formula B with argument constant a, close parenthesis The source then says that this formula is derivable. We can now apply the quantifier rule to obtain formula row eight: the conditional whose antecedent is open parenthesis, the conjunction of for every variable x, formula A with argument variable x and for every variable y, formula B with argument variable y, close parenthesis; and whose consequent is for every variable x, open parenthesis, the conjunction of formula A with argument variable x and formula B with argument variable x, close parenthesis' preserves every printed formula row and every intervening proof transition in source order.
