And the most remarkable thing of all is, that this same identical positive science recognizes the scientific method as the sign of true knowledge, and has itself defined what it designates as the scientific method. By the scientific method it means common-sense. And common-sense convicts it at every step.
A year or so after the surrender of Montreal he was married to Elizabeth, daughter of Rev. Arthur Brown, Rector of St. John's Church, in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. He considered this town his residence, and in papers executed this very year sometimes designates himself "as of Portsmouth," and at others, as "now residing at Portsmouth."
Cornelius Agrippa rightly designates astrologers "a perverse and preposterous generation of men, who profess to know future things, but in the meantime are altogether ignorant of past and present; and undertaking to tell all people most obscure and hidden secrets abroad, at the same time, know not what happens in their own houses."
The word gentleman, which, like the word Christian, must hereafter characterize the present and the few preceding centuries by the importance attached to it, is a homage to personal and incommunicable properties. Frivolous and fantastic additions have got associated with the name, but the steady interest of mankind in it must be attributed to the valuable properties which it designates.
This must have been his last act, for his death and this holocaust of ancestral claims both occurred in the year 1682. A history of Russia naïvely designates one of its chapters "The Period of Troubles"! When was there not a period of troubles in this land? The historian wearies, and doubtless the reader too, of such prolonged disorder and calamity.
But the power of the soul is peculiar, necessary, and always consistent: the capricious nature of the materials through which it finds expression changes nothing in the eternal laws, as long as this capriciousness does not stand in contradiction with itself, and so long as the sign remains true to the thing it designates.
Further referring to S. Paul, he comments on his remark to the Romans that he will "come in the fulness of the blessing of Christ," and says that he thus designates "the spiritual gift and the Gnostic interpretation, while being present he desires to impart to them present as 'the fulness of Christ, according to the revelation of the Mystery sealed in the ages of eternity, but now manifested by the prophetic Scriptures' .... But only to a few of them is shown what those things are which are contained in the Mystery.
It is a cardinal principle to send out patrols of such strength only as will accomplish the object. The officer sending out the patrol verifies the detail, designates a second in command, and gives the necessary instruction.
Be it understood that this explanation is offered merely as a conjecture, which, however, finds support in the meaning attached to the term 'Igigi. This, as Halévy and Guyard have recognized, is a formation of a well-known stem occurring in Babylonian, as well as in other Semitic languages, that has the meaning 'strong. The ideographic form of writing the name likewise designates the spirits as 'the great chiefs. The 'Igigi, therefore, are 'the strong ones, and strength being the attribute most commonly assigned to the Semitic deities, there is a presumption, at least, in favor of interpreting Anunnak, or Anunnaki, in the same way.
The epic closes grandiloquently: With fifty names, the great gods According to their fifty names, proclaimed the supremacy of his course. The compiler has added to the epic what Delitzsch appropriately designates an 'epilogue, a declaration of affection for Marduk. The epilogue consists of three stanzas.
