Why should the testimony of a great Christian character that he is conscious of intercourse with deity be more authoritative than the testimony of, perhaps, the same person on other occasions, of conflict with a personal devil? Moreover, visions and a sense of contact with a super-normal world are not peculiar to the religious character. It is a common feature of a general psychopathic condition.

Hickling, attached to the psychopathic ward in the District Jail, with more threats and suggestions, if the hunger strike continued.

She looked at the drawing of a completely naked man, And howled like a dog at the sea.
