They say--" There is a scar on your finger, it was very likely cut when you were three years old; you had not that finger then, the skin has been changed again and again, but the scar always remains." I do not, however, see the force of that illustration. What resemblance can there be between a scar and thinking, reflecting, judging, feeling remorse for doing wrong, and aspiring to do well? To be at all logical that person should nave been able to say--" Well, sir, there is a scar on your finger; your finger was cut when you were about three years old; it was a small finger then; it was a very severe cut and hurt you very much, and you were very loth to have it dressed every morning; the wound caused you a deal of pain. Well, sir, all the pain is there yet. The scar was formed because the fibres of the skm and flesh did not join in the right way. There is now always a scar. It is not always the same scar; nevertheless there is in it all the feeling of pain you had at the time of the wound being made; it is all there yet, sir--all reposing in the scar.

That would have been a more analogous kind of argument, and yet it would be simple nonsense. I often forget that I have a finger for hours together. You cannot liken such things as scars, the bark of trees, and so forth, to willing, thinking, judging, and reflecting. It is impossible.
