The Sutras now apply themselves to the refutation of this view, in order thereby to confirm the theory of Brahman being the only cause of all. We read in the Katha-Upanishad, 'Beyond the senses there are the objects, beyond the objects there is the mind, beyond the mind there is the intellect, the great Self is beyond the intellect.

"That she wasn't playing fair..." Her face was lighted with a primitive malevolence. "She isn't straight!" He tried to pull himself up in prideful refutation, but the effort failed. He was turning away defeated when a knock sounded on the door. Watson entered. Ginger drew herself flatly against the wall.

Very many thousands of dervish wounded fell into our hands that day and later. Officers have written to the press, denying these charges and the rest of Mr Bennett's tale of monstrosity. The Sirdar himself has confirmed by a personal cablegram my refutation of them.

The former alternative is impossible, because something real cannot belong to what is unreal; and the latter is impossible because something unreal cannot belong to what is real. But we need not extend any further this refutation of an altogether ill- founded theory.

Halley induced the author, on June 20th, to address a long letter to him, in which he gives a minute and able refutation of Hooke's claims; but before this letter was despatched another correspondent, who had received his information from one of the members that were present, informed Newton "that Hooke made a great stir, pretending that he had all from him, and desiring they would see that he had justice done him."

"I mean that the conduct of the negroes everywhere is an everlasting refutation of much of the bitter stuff which is said by the other side. This war would crumble like that, if, with all the white men gone, there were on the plantations faithlessness to trust, hatred, violence, outrage if there were among us, in Virginia alone, half a million incendiaries! There aren't, thank God!

This is the characteristic movement of rhetoric, which, as is readily seen, is quite different from the plot movement of poetic. The parts are capable of further analysis. Consequently most writers of the classical period subdivide the proof proper into probatio, or affirmative proof, and refutatio, or refutation.

If refutation is sought of the charge that republics are ungrateful, it will certainly not be found in the history of Hugo Grotius or John of Barneveld. Nor is there need to portray the wrath of Captain Deventer when he returned to Castle Loevestein. "Here is the cage, but your bird is flown," said corpulent Maria Grotius with a placid smile.

To their official Confession of Augsburg, which had formed among other things the groundwork and charter of the Religious Peace, and to the Apology, drawn up by Melancthon in reply to the Catholic 'Refutation, they desired, however, now to add a protest against the authority and the Divine right of the Papacy.

But there are thousands, North and South, who will read this refutation, and will feel and acknowledge that in the light of God's truth the notion of created equality and unalienable right is falsehood and infidelity. Rev. A. Barnes:
