[FOM] A FOL truth behind the Cantor lemma

 There is a first order logical truth that seems to me to be an even more general and fundamental principle behind Cantor's lemma.

I don't remember where I first saw this noted, I vaguely think it may have been in something by Richard Cartwright.  It makes a nice exam question in either semantic or derivational version.
