Excerpt from Notes of a Course of Six Lectures (Adapted to a Juvenile Auditory), On Ice, Water, Vapour, and Air
1. Every occurrence in Nature is preceded by other occurrences which are its causes, and succeeded by others which are its effects. The human mind is not satisfied with observing and studying any natural occurrence alone, but takes pleasure in connecting every natural fact with what has gone before it, and with what is to come.
