I'm trying to run the program described in SICP 4.1 (http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/full-text/book/book-Z-H-26.html) but have run into some difficulty in redefining the function apply
as the book suggests that you do. The code is the following:

The problem is the beginning, where I am trying to save the scheme builtin apply as "apply-in-underlying-scheme." Since there is another function named "apply" written below, I get the error "reference to an identifier before its definition: apply." How can I reference the builtin "apply" without causing an error here?
