When I claim freshness I do not make, you understand, any claim to original discovery. What I have to say, and have been saying for some time, is also more or less, and with certain differences to be found in the thought of Professor Bosanquet, for example, in Alfred Sidgwick's "Use of Words in Reasoning," in Sigwart's "Logic," in contemporary American metaphysical speculation.

Thus faith in Science is faith in God. Perhaps the most impressive declaration of this necessary connexion between Knowledge and Theism stands at the end of that great work, Christoph Sigwart's Logik.

For a like reason you must deny any possible forms or modes of unity among things which you have begun by defining as a 'many. We have cast a glance at Hegel's and Bradley's use of this sort of reasoning, and you will remember Sigwart's epigram that according to it a horseman can never in his life go on foot, or a photographer ever do anything but photograph.

It is I who have broken up its simplicity, and it belongs to my reader to put it together again. James's Psychology, ch. xxvi. Sigwart's Der Begriff des Wollen's, in his Kleine Schriften. A. Alexander's Theories of the Will. Munsterberg's Die Willenshandlung. Hoffding's Psychology, ch. vii. Conceivably a being such, as has been described might advance no farther.
