Why the effect is so limited, and why all objects are not em- braced in it ? Why different objects cause the same emo- tion in different degrees? And why the same objects produce a diversity of emotions in different individuals, and even in the same individual at different times ? ^ 257. A susceptibility of emotions of beauty an ultimate principle of our mental constitution. In answering these questions, something must be taken for granted; there must be some starting point, other- wise all tha...t can be said will be involved in inextricable confusion. That is, we must take for granted that the mind has an original susceptibility of such emotions. Nor can we suppose there can be any objection to a conces- sion which is warranted by the most general experience. We all know that we are created with this susceptibihty, because we are all conscious of having had those emo- tions which are attributed to it. And if we are asked how or why it is that the susceptibility at the bottom of these feelings exists, we can only say that such was the will of the Being who created the mind, and that this is one of the original or ultimate elements of our nature.
