The Dean came with water in his felt hat from the trough, and presently the stranger opened his eyes. For a moment he lay looking up into their faces as though wondering where he was, and how he happened there. "Are you hurt bad?" asked the Dean. That brought him to his senses, and he got to his feet somewhat unsteadily, and began brushing the dust from his clothes.
It was all so unreal and yet so plain to our senses that perforce automatically our experience had to conclude it psychical. We were in air absolutely still. Yet above us the trees writhed and twisted and turned and bent and struck back, evidently in the power of a mighty force.
The mock battles of two dogs or of other animals are not conscious practice on their part, but are play pure and simple, the same as human games, though their value as training is obvious enough. Animals do not have general ideas; they receive impressions through their various senses, to which they respond.

Consider our position in relation to children. We are their "stimuli," by which their feeling, which is developing so delicately, should be exercised.
Brett had seen much that is hidden from public ken in the vagaries of criminals, but he had never yet met a man wholly bad, and at the same time in full possession of his senses. To adopt the hasty judgment arrived at by Hume and Mrs.
Because none doth ordinarily laugh alone? ordinarily no one; yet laughter sometimes masters men alone and singly when on one whatever is with them, if anything very ludicrous presents itself to their senses or mind. Yet I had not done this alone; alone I had never done it.
