It has been objected, that if the images upon the retina be inverted, external objects ought to appear inverted. To which it may be answered, that experience,; I-. 1... alone If the outer coat be taken from an ox's eye, whilst it is warm, the images of external objects are observed to be inverted upon the retina.: alone teaches us, what situation of the external object: corresponds to a particular impression upon the retina 5 nor is it of any consequence what that impression is, or in what manner it is made; but whenever the fame effect is produced upon the organ, we expect to find the fame external object, and in the situation to which our former experience directs us. 241.

And in general, whenever the image, upon the retina, moves from the left to the right, we are led, by experience, to conclude that the object really moves from the right to the left. 242. If the form of the eye, the situation of the Jeveral humours, and their respective surfaces, remain unaltered, it is manifest that those rays only, which diverge from points at a particular distance, can be collected upon the retina. Thus, if the image of 2 be formed exactly upon the Tetina, the image of Sy a point farther from the eye than 3, will-be formed within the eye; therefore, the rays which proceed from this point, will be diffused over some space upon the retina; and, if they are mixed with the rays which diverge from other points in the object, necessary to be distinguished from the for...

All of these characters have certain things that have occurred in their lives which are both frightening and mystifying. Included also are characters from the darker side of Irish Folklore.

Remember that it is said, "Fact is often stranger than fiction."

    Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
