Strana 568 - ... of the big blue German Ocean. Seaward St. Abb's Head, of whinstone, bounds your horizon to the east, not very far off; west, close by, is the deep bay, and fishy little village of Belhaven : the gloomy Bass and other rock-islets, and farther the Hills of Fife, and foreshadows of the Highlands, are visible as you look seaward. From the bottom of Belhaven bay to that of the next seabight St. Abb's-ward, the Town and its environs form a peninsula. Along the base of which peninsula, ' not much above...
Strana 258 - declares, that " a very considerable number of the facts may be brought under the following principle, namely, that states of pleasure are connected with an increase, and states of pain with an abatement, of some, or all, of the vital functions.
Strana 568 - Frith of Forth is niched and vandyked, as far as the eye can reach. A beautiful sea ; good land too, now that the plougher understands his trade ; a grim niched barrier of whinstone sheltering it from the chafings and tumblings of the big blue German Ocean. Seaward St. Abb's Head, of whinstone, bounds your horizon to the east, not very far off; west, close by, is the deep bay, and fishy little village of Belhaven : the gloomy Bass and other rock-islets, and farther the Hills of Fife, and foreshadows...
Strana 40 - And even those who know and admit that the mind is something more than brain, disregard the fact in their systems of education, following almost unconsciously the old ruts. Thus Bain says in one place : " The organ of mind is not the brain by itself ; it is the brain, nerves, muscles, organs of sense, and viscera.
Strana 366 - Why this celestial vault appears more distant towards the horizon, than towards the zenith, will afterwards appear. 3. The colours of objects, according as they are more distant, become more faint and languid, and are tinged more with the azure of the intervening atmosphere : to this we may add, that their minute parts become more indistinct, and their outline less accurately defined.
Strana 656 - In the act of sensible perception, I am conscious of two things ; — of myself as the perceiving subject, and of an external reality, in relation with my sense, as the object perccived.
Strana 522 - Associations that are individually too weak, to operate the revival of a past idea, may succeed by acting together; and there is thus opened up to our view a means of aiding our recollection, or invention, when the one thread in hand is too feeble to effect a desired recall. It happens in fact, that, in a very large number of our mental transitions, there is present a multiple bond of association.
Strana 624 - But another man, who never took the pains to observe the demonstration, hearing a mathematician, a man of credit, affirm the three angles of a triangle to be equal to two right ones, assents to it, ie receives it for true.
Strana 150 - It is thickest in the palms of the hands and soles of the feet, where the skin is much exposed to pressure, and it is not Fig.
Strana 656 - ... object perceived. Of the existence of both these things I am convinced ; because I am conscious of knowing each of them, not mediately, in something else, as represented, but immediately in itself, as existing. Of their mutual independence I am no less convinced ; because each is apprehended equally, and at once, in the same indivisible energy, the one not preceding or determining, the other not following or determined ; and because each is apprehended out of, and in direct contrast to, the other.
