As it is from the disposition of visible and tangible objects we receive the idea of space, so from the succession of ideas and impressions we form the idea of time, nor is it possible for time alone ever to make its appearance, or be taken notice of by the mind. For we should thus have a whole containing a series of members which could not be completed in any regress--which is infinite, and at the same time complete in an organized composite. This is that an event cannot be determined in time, and consequently cannot form a part of experience, unless it stands under this dynamical law. It may not be amiss, on this occasion, to remark the flexibility of our sentiments, and the several changes they so readily receive from the objects, with which they are conjoined.
