The list of negations ends with two positive turns, and they are what matters.
Pūrṇāt pūrṇam — “fuller than the full”. The same turn as in 2.67; it belongs to the family of the Īśopaniṣad's famous opening.
Sukhāt sukham — “gladder than gladness”. The word sukha is ordinary, homely: “pleasant, good, comfortable”. Not “bliss” in a special dialect, but the same good — only more.
This deserves marking. After six lines of negation the book speaks of the goal in the words used for simple joy.
And further: na sarvaṃ sarvam eva ca — “not all, and all”. Both at once.
Recall 4.55: sarva-kṛt sarvaḥ, “all-making and all”. The book does not choose between “He is all” and “He is above all”; it holds both sides, and this is that very camatkāra of 4.14.
