Without having recourse to metaphysics, any one may easily observe, that space or extension consists of a number of co-existent parts disposed in a certain order, and capable of being at once present to the sight or feeling.

 If this, and with it space as the a priori condition of the possibility of phenomena, is left out of view, the whole world of sense disappears. 

If I can say a priori, "All outward phenomena are in space, and determined a priori according to the relations of space," I can also, from the principle of the internal sense, affirm universally, "All phenomena in general, that is, all objects of the senses, are in time and stand necessarily in relations of time."

 But this does not hold good of the Totum substantiale phaenomenon, which, as an empirical intuition in space, possesses the necessary property of containing no simple part, for the very reason that no part of space is simple. If light be not given to the senses, we cannot represent to ourselves darkness, and if extended objects are not perceived, we cannot represent space. The world has no beginning, and no limits in space, but is, in relation both to time and space, infinite. SECT. II. OF THE INFINITE DIVISIBILITY OF SPACE AND TIME. These representations, in so far as they are connected and determinable in this relation (in space and time) according to laws of the unity of experience, are called objects. 4 It is in relation to possible objects in space* He feels in that case a certain sensation or impression, the parts of which are successive to each other, and may give him the idea of time: But certainly are not disposed in such a manner, as is necessary to convey the idea of s ace or the idea of space or extension.
