Now, if the first two are to be sciences of things wholly physical, these premises are out of place. In the two latter sciences, they are in place ; but even systems of metaphysics, rest- ing upon such assumed verbal premises treated as axiomatic definitions of some noumena which the words **mind" and ** self-consciousness" strive to express (viz., that the one premise **mind" is **an active intelligence aware of itself," and the other premise, ** self-conscious- Digitized by VjOOQ IC The Answe...r 6i ness," is **an act or state" of the first), evi- dently depend for their uniformity (when correct in all else, as ratiocination, logic, etc.) upon the commonness of understanding of these words as premises ; and so, of course, differ as these premises are modified by what different writers include in the word ** mind " and impute to its ** self-consciousness," since hardly two metaphysicians can be found, each of whom intends exactly the same as and no more than his fellow by ** mind " and " self- consciousness." Such, baldly, being the prevalent, vague ideas signified by ** consciousness," what cor- relatives-in-fact of these ideas, so far as hu- man vision goes, can be found in the sensible facts of sensible existence ?
