Suppose we substitute for that astronomy the one that now prevails: we have deprived the single sun which now exists and spreads its influences without interruption of its humanity and even of its metaphysical unity. It has become a congeries of chemical substances. The facts revealed to perception have partly changed their locus and been differently deployed throughout nature.
Then λ is an instantaneous plane in the instantaneous space of M and also in the instantaneous space of N. It is the locus of all the event-particles which lie both in M and in N.
If you once admit fate, which is to say, the chain of links of cause and effect, astrology has a locus standi, and becomes what it was of yore, a boundless science, requiring the same faculty of deduction by which Cuvier became so great, a faculty to be exercised spontaneously, however, and not merely in nights of study in the closet.
Barker, thoroughly believing him, and already a little frightened at his own presumption not for the amount of the money involved, but from the possibility of his partners refusing his gift utterly quickly took advantage of this LOCUS PENITENTIAE. "No matter, then," he said hurriedly; "perhaps I had better consult my partners first; in fact," he added, with a gratuitous truthfulness all his own, "I hardly know whether they will take it of me, so I think I'll wait."
The two boundaries must have a common portion which is in fact a continuous three-dimensional locus of event-particles in the four-dimensional manifold. A three-dimensional locus of event-particles which is the common portion of the boundary of two adjoined events will be called a 'solid. A solid may or may not lie completely in one moment.
In a few cases he makes concession to etymology, by giving derivatives under their root, e.g. under ago come all the words derived from it: but he has regard to the weak, and places them also in their right alphabetical position. Not many derivations are given; but one of them is well known. Lucus is defined as 'locus amenus, vbi multae arbores sunt.
"Did he, though?" said Tom; "then Arthur must be wrong." "Of course he is," said Gower "the little prig. We'll only use the crib when we can't construe without it. Go ahead, East." And on this agreement they started Tom, satisfied with having made his confession, and not sorry to have a locus penitentiae, and not to be deprived altogether of the use of his old and faithful friend.
One was a police-inspector, the second appeared to be a plain-clothes officer, while the third was evidently the divisional surgeon. "Friends of yours, Hart?" inquired the latter, regarding us with some disfavour. Thorndyke gave a brief explanation of our presence to which the newcomer rejoined: "Well, sir, your locus standi here is a matter for the inspector.
"'Tis a cat of mine," said the archdeacon, quickly, "who is regaling herself under there with a mouse." This explanation satisfied Charmolue. "In fact, master," he replied, with a respectful smile, "all great philosophers have their familiar animal. You know what Servius saith: 'Nullus enim locus sine genio est, for there is no place that hath not its spirit."
His articles, already quoted, are indeed the Locus Classicus for all mediaeval theorists, and, though references in every mediaeval work on social and economic questions are freely made to Aristotle's Politics, it is evident that it is really Aquinas who is intended.
