what 4d vision seems like to us

ok 1d beings only see a point... a 2d being will see only lines... a 3d being will see only plains....

but what about how a lower dimensional being preceives a higher dimensional being's sight...

if you draw the 3d veiw at a point to the extremities of a square from the top veiw (so the square still looks like a square) then it apears as if the eye is inside the square and is looking in all 2d directions at once... it looks like a the topside veiw of a pyramid. if you rotate that image untill the square was flat it would look like the side veiw of a pyramid.

well we know that its becuase that vision is expanding as it extends further in the 3rd direction...

so if we were to draw the apearance of a 4d veiw of a cube... would it also seem like its veiw is extending in all 3d directions? and how would one portray this image when rotated in the 4th dimension?
