The inductive method, or the "Baconian" method of observation and experiment, began to bear rich fruits. Fluxions, or the differential calculus, was discovered independently by both Newton and Leibnitz. Napier invented logarithms, to shorten mathematical calculations.

"Wather!" said Mat "a drink of wather, if it's to be had for love or money, or I'll split wid druth I'm all in a state of conflagration; and my head by the sowl of Newton, the inventor of fluxions, but my head is a complete illucidation of the centrifugal motion, so it is. Tundher-an'-turf! is there no wather to be had?

The wit which blasted the sophisms of Escobar the impassioned eloquence which defended the sisters of Port Royal the intellectual hardihood which was not beaten down even by Papal authority might have raised him to the Patriarchate of the Philosophical Church. It was long disputed whether the honour of inventing the method of Fluxions belonged to Newton or to Leibnitz.

At the moment Jacob was speaking, certainly my fancy was bent on a phaeton and horses, rather than on Hebrew or fluxions, and the contrast was striking, between what he conceived my first objects at Cambridge would be, and what they really were. However, I thanked him for his good opinion, and promised to make myself acquainted with his learned countryman.

I found by his conversation, that though he was the son of a great Hebrew grammarian, and himself a great Hebrew scholar, and though he had written a treatise on fluxions, and a work on botany, yet he was not a mere mathematician, a mere grammarian, or a mere botanist, nor yet a dull pedant. In despite of the assertion, that " Hebrew roots are always found To flourish best on barren ground,"
