There are many kinds of the poetic temper, the intellectual element blending variously with the emotional, the instinctive and the visional. For Schiller poetry was not 'somnambulism', but a very deliberate process; wherefore it was quite natural for him to expect that a season of philosophic study would be good for him.

"Oh yes'm yes, ma'am; sir, I mean; I mean, Oh, yes, indeed! The'a! It does sound just as well, don't it?" Clementina laughed in triumph at the outcome of her efforts, so that a reluctant visional smile came upon Gregory's face, too. "I'm very mach obliged to you, Mr. Gregory I shall always want to do it, if it's the right way." "It's the right way," said Gregory coldly.

And for the same reason he has lost receptibility to intermediate vibrations in the COLOR spectrum, which has clouded or stultified his visional faculties.

Some think themselves about to enter Amida's paradise of light; some see in their visional hope the saki-no-yo only, the future rebirth, when beloved shall meet beloved again, in the all-joyous freshness of another youth; while the idea of many, indeed of the majority, is vaguer far only a shadowy drifting together through vapoury silences, as in the faint bliss of dreams.

Ryder is akin to Coleridge, too, for there is a direct visional analogy between "The Flying Dutchman" and the excessively pictorial stanzas of "The Ancient Mariner." Ryder has typified himself in this excellent portrayal of sea disaster, this profound spectacle of the soul's despair in conflict with wind and wave.

The lieutenant was instructing the squad in visional training. "Tell me, Number One," he said, "how many men are there in that trench-digging party over there?" "Thirty men and one officer," was the prompt reply. "Quite right," observed the lieutenant, after a pause. "But how do you know one is an officer at this distance?" "'Cos he's the only one not working, sir."

He, however, became much interested, and some little time after showed me the passage to which I have referred in Berlioz' Memoirs. This set me investigating, and I soon found examples of states of ecstasy similar to, if not exactly like, my own. Tennyson supplied one in the visional passages in the Princess. Kinglake had a visitation akin to isolement.
