But in plant or animal the condensed light was never separated and individualised, never parted from, though obviously gathered and agglomerated out of, the generally diffused rosy sheen that tinged the entire landscape.

It was as though the rose-coloured light formed an atmosphere which entered and passed freely through the tissues of each animal and plant, but brightened and deepened in those portions which at any moment pervaded any organised shape, while it flowed freely in and out of all.

The concentration was most marked, the connection with the diffused atmosphere least perceptible, in those most intelligent creatures, like the _amba_ and _carve_, which in the service of man appear to have acquired a portion of human intelligence.

But turning to the type of Man himself, the light within his body had assumed the shape of the frame it filled and appeared to animate.

In him the rose-coloured image which exactly corresponded to the body that encased it was perfectly individualised, and had no other connection with the remainder of the light than that it appeared to emanate and to be fed from the original source.
