ISAAC NEWTON. 439 law. There is no event in this history more significant, more epoch-making, than this. It will be remembered, that among the fundamental principles of physics are the three laws of motion which Newton formulated; the first stating the effect of force upon a body left to itself; the second defining the relation of the change of motion of the body to the force impressed, and the third that perennial stumbling-block to all the perpetual-motion seekers of the past and most u new m...otor" contrivers of the present that action and reaction are equal and in contrary directions. This last obviously defines the effect of the action of two bodies one upon the other that of the first upon the second being equaled by the contrary reaction of the second upon the first; or, to borrow Newton's own illustration, "If you press a stone with your finger, the finger is also pressed by the stone. If a horse draws a stone tied to a rope, the horse will be equally drawn back toward the stone; for the distended rope, by the same endeavor to relax or unbend itself, will draw the horse as much toward the stone, as it does the stone toward the horse, and will obstruct the progress of the one as much as it advances that of the other.
