And the help of'science, ' at that stage of thought, is still more nugatory. Physical science, as we conceive it--that is, the systematicinvestigation of external nature in detail--did not then exist. Afew isolated observations on surface things--a half-correctcalendar, secrets mainly of priestly invention, and in priestlycustody--were all that was then imagined; the idea of using asettled study of nature as a basis for the discovery of newinstruments and new things, did not then exist. It is i...ndeed amodern idea, and is peculiar to a few European countries even yet. In the most intellectual city of the ancient world, in its mostintellectual age, Socrates, its most intellectual inhabitant, discouraged the study of physics because they engendereduncertainty, and did not augment human happiness.
