cludes in Its wide domain knowledge of
all the faculties, passion and powers of the
human soul; all the bodily organism over
which the soul presides, with its structures
ami functions; and all the realm of nature

striking specimens Of Human Nature, in
its highest and lowest, its harmonious and
discordant, lis symmetrical and grutesaue
