Our Books and Ourselves.

We should ask questions of our book
and of ourselves; what is its purpose
by what means it proceeds TO effect
that purpose; whether we fully under
stand the one, and go along with the
other? DO the arguments satisfy us ;
do the descriptions convey lively and
distinct images TO us; do we under
stand all the illusions to persons or
thingsf In short. does our mind act
over again from the writer's guidance
what his acted before; do we reason
as he reasoned, conceive as he con-
ceived; think and feel as he thought
and felt; or, if not. can we discern
where and how far we do not. and can
we tell why we do not?-Dr. Thomas
Arnold.
