That man has had a liberal education who has been so trained in youth that his body is the ready servant of his will, and does with ease and pleasure all the work that, as a mechanism, it is capable of; whose intellect is a clear, cold logic engine, wttfe all its parts of equal strength, and in smooth working order, ready, like a steam engine, to be tamed to any kind of work, and spin thegossamera, as well as forge the anchors, of the brain ; whose mind is stored with knowledge of the , great and fundamental truth* of Nature, and of the laws of her operation* ; who, no stunted ascetic, is fall of life and fuse, bat whose passions are trained to come touted bya vigorous will, the servant of atengercoaeeienoe; who has learned to kv»«fl*e*nty, whether of Nature or of art, to bate aN triteness, and to respect others »&ao*tf.-»Pro-fessor Huxley. ■■: - ■ ~''■
