Tho the more that surrounds it may be 'subconscious' to us, yet if in its 'collective capacity' it also exerts an active function, it may be conscious in a wider way, conscious, as it were, over our heads. On the relations of consciousness to action see Bergson's Matière et Mémoire, passim, especially chap. i.

In one of his interesting 'Lay Sermons, the most interesting perhaps of the whole interesting series, Professor Huxley, taking for his theme the 'Physical Basis of Life, combats 'the widely-spread conception of life as a something which works through matter, but is independent of it; affirming, on the contrary, 'that matter and life are inseparably connected, and that there is one kind of matter which is common to all living beings. The preacher may be safely allowed to have satisfactorily made out the second portion of this affirmation.

The man dropped his rabbit on the table with a negligent air. "Oh, oui, Monsieur, d'apres la nature." He made the rabbit turn a somersault by suddenly pressing the bulb hard.

Je crois qu'il me rendait deja tout ce que j'eprouvais de sympathie et d'estime, et que je ne fus pas pour rien dans son retour a Paris. Chose singuliere! nous nous etions attaches l'un a l'autre par les sous-entendus bien plus que par la matiere de nos conversations.

The lais of Marie de France were written in England, and the greater number of the romances composing the matière de Bretagne seem to have passed from England to France through the medium of Anglo-Norman. Asaph had stamped upon them. One Folie Tristan was composed in England in the last years of the 12th century.
