In this peculiar and privileged hour, his bodily frame, as he could recognise, although just then, in the whole sum of its capacities, so entirely possessed by him — Nay ! actually his very self — was yet determined by a far- reaching system of material forces external to it, a thousand combining currents from earth and sky. Its seemingly active powers of apprehension were, in fact, but susceptibilities to influence. The perfection of its capacity might be said to depend on its passive surrende...r, as of a leaf on the wind, to the motions of the great stream of physical energy without it. And might not the intellectual frame also, still more intimately himself as in truth it was, after the analogy of the bodily life, be a moment only, an, impulse or series of impulses, a single process, in an intellectual or spiritual system external to it, difi"used through all time and place — that great stream of spiritual energy, of which his own imperfect thoughts, yesterday or to-day, would be but the remote, and there- fore imperfect pulsations?
