6 I | water and pour it in, you see that that side of the scales
7 I | we call gravity, and you see there [pointing to the scales]
8 I | the whole of that water. See what a little there is of
9 I | wonderful thing it is to see that it requires so much
10 I | much as the lime does, but see how differently. So great
11 I | sufficient sometimes (as you see here) to set wood on fire;
12 I | water into the barge. You see how strangely different
13 I | round edges.] There you see a bubble of air bearing
14 I | ends of its journey, you see that the ball is in a higher
15 I | same time, and you will see by-and-by how this is. Now
16 I | has weight, as you will see if I put it in these scales;
17 I | it6, I get that which you see - [the lecturer here put
18 I | and what I want you to see is that this steam gravitates.
19 I | pour this steam into it you see that the steam gravitates.
20 I | Just watch the index, and see whether it tilts over or
21 I | from the marble, but you see that part of the marble,
22 I | paper in]. And thus you see that other forms of matter
23 I | immediately extinguished.] You see from this result also that
24 I | at that point, you will see it will be supported in

29 I | hanging firmly, and you now see how you can hang up the
30 I | of a stick. Now you will see I have only to place two

34 I | through the air together, you see that the lump of gold -
35 I | try them side by side to see whether they fall at the
36 I | time [dropping them]. You see they do not - the penny-piece
37 I | upon then dropping them you see they do both fall in the
38 I | letting them fall] and you see at once that they both reach
39 I | loose, and you must watch to see how rapidly it falls. There! [
40 I | should fall.~I am sorry to see our time for parting is
41 II | shines upon it. And you see at once how much - exactly
42 II | in shadow; moreover, you see that if I put a single screen
43 II | particles are placed upon it, see what an attraction they
44 II | them to attract each other. See! I could let a mouse run
45 II | to very fine powder, you see that I can actually build
46 II | particles together, you see perhaps a couple of ounces
47 II | it for some moments.] You see, while hanging here, all
48 II | of attraction, you will see how soon they become one.

57 II | experiment]. There it is. You see the red is not put back,
58 II | fell to pieces.] There! you see the solid glass has suddenly
59 II | of bringing your minds to see that bodies are not merely
60 II | coalescing, and you shall see what happens if I take this
61 II | into a square cube. You see these fragments are all
62 II | have broken off, and you see there are plain surfaces

64 II | theatre will not be able to see, and I am going to make
65 II | before not high enough to see over the side of the basin

69 II | you were thus enabled to see the articles at the bottom.~
70 II | attracts light, and might then see how other substances like
71 II | the prism.] Now, here you see, if I send the light through
72 II | glass, B [a prism], you see it will show a very different
73 II | the glass upon it; and you see I can turn and twist the
74 II | on to the screen, and you see how wonderfully and beautifully
75 II | piece of mica. Here, you see, is our ray of light: we
76 II | light to get through. You see the screen remains dark.
77 II | into leaf after leaf, and see how that enables the light
78 II | of cohesion.~Now we will see how calcareous spar acts
79 II | calc-spar introduced at A.] See how that turns the light
80 II | upon the light. You shall see what it will do when we
81 II | the parts, and you will see what a curious effect that
82 II | the ray of light.] Now you see how beautifully the light
83 III | with a pair of pliers.] You see I now find no difficulty
84 III | of the block of ice]. You see I am now melting the ice
85 III | the iron touches it. You see the iron sinking into it;
86 III | vapor. At the same time, you see I can not melt all this
87 III | and we shall very shortly see the mixture become quite
88 III | particles of ice. Here you see the tin dish is frozen to
89 III | lower one is held up by it. See how it runs about as I move
90 III | India-rubber ball; for you see; if I introduce one end
91 III | is blown out. And look! see how the bubble is disappearing -
92 III | bubble is disappearing - see how it is getting smaller
93 III | alcohol bottle, and you see, when I turn it upside down,
94 III | its particles, and yet you see that there is a good deal
95 III | an enormous extent. You see it is very clear that as
96 III | of its flame; and you now see what an enormously bulky
97 III | water. I want you now to see another experiment, which
98 III | the violet vapor], and you see the same kind of change
99 III | produced]. Here also you see a very excellent illustration
100 III | Chemical Affinity. And thus you see we can have a violet vapor
101 III | particles for each other. You see we have come to understand
102 III | at our disposal. Here you see it is [causing the ends
103 III | connection (at A and B), you see the water boiling in that
104 III | going through the tube (D). See how I am converting the
105 III | examine it carefully, to see in what way the water has
106 III | jar of gas (F), you will see, upon opening the stop-cocks (
107 III | the vessel, and you will see it burn with a most intense
108 III | flash, and now that you may see that there is no longer
109 III | quite sufficient for you to see.~Another wonderful thing
110 III | and to examine them, and see what they are like, and
111 III | we shall soon be able to see a difference. In this apparatus
112 III | sending them off, and you see that one set of particles (
113 III | collect this gas (H), you will see that it is by no means the
114 III | burn of itself. So now we see that water consists of two
115 III | of oxygen, and you will see what this gas does in increasing
116 III | in oxygen gas; you will see how differently it acts. [
117 III | of oxygen.] Look at that! See how the very wax itself
118 III | through it, and you will see the way in which they burn. [
119 III | insupportably brilliant], you see how wonderfully different
120 IV | yesterday.~The processes, you see, are very different, though
121 IV | to it, I think you will see it take fire - not with
122 IV | events, hear it if you do not see it. Now that is a body entirely
123 IV | when they are upside down. See what I am about to do. There
124 IV | examine the two. We shall see, on applying a light, that
125 IV | from my mouth, you will see them fall, because I fill
126 IV | it does no good to them), see what happens. [The lecturer
127 IV | under that jar, and you will see how soon the water is produced.
128 IV | white smoke.] There you see the result of the action
129 IV | antimony, and you shall see what takes place when we
130 IV | these glasses you can not see any difference between them.
131 IV | glass, and you will at once see, I have no doubt, a certain
132 IV | together, you will soon see what a different result
133 IV | thicker and thicker, and you see the liquid is hardening
134 IV | their affinity, you will see the difference. [The piece
135 IV | most brilliantly, as you see. And now let me tell you
136 IV | this affinity. There you see some charcoal burning in
137 IV | or combination. There you see the iron burning very well
138 IV | surface, while there you see the melted oxide is clearing
139 IV | it, and I expect you will see it take fire at once. This
140 IV | normal temperature; what you see, therefore, is the result
141 IV | substances, and I want you to see how curiously what we call
142 IV | over the phosphorus, you see the combustion which we
143 IV | that has gone out, as you see; and its amount of chemical
144 IV | cotton wool burns, as you see, very well in the atmosphere;
145 IV | it is called guncotton22. See how that burns [setting
146 IV | nitrate of strontia: you will see the beautiful red color
147 IV | the water, and you will see whether that water can extinguish
148 IV | the action stops, and you see, thereby, that it depends
149 IV | heat. I want you now to see how it expands all bodies -
150 IV | that retort, and you will see, the moment he does so,
151 IV | from bodies, they collapse: see how the air is contracting
152 IV(23)| solution of these salts (See Chemical News, vol. i.,
153 V | his hand.] Again, you will see I can repeat this experiment
154 V | each other strongly.] You see, therefore, what a difference
155 V | it on the flat glass (you see I am searching for the centre
156 V | holding it near the lath], you see how strong the attraction
157 V | indicator as can be required. See how it rolls along, traveling
158 V | unless to go to the other. See how curiously electrical
159 V | subject at present; you see clearly there are two kinds
160 V | artificial magnets (you will see me tomorrow make artificial
161 V | magnets and examine it, and see where the power is in the
162 V | it is a dual power. You see it attracts these keys,
163 V | it in a similar way, you see that one of its ends repels
164 V | attraction again.~You will see this better, perhaps, by
165 V | of the little magnet. You see it pulls toward it with
166 V | opposite extremity (N), you see that it is the colored end
167 V | we can soon find out. You see, when I bring it near our
168 V | s), and then examine it, see how strongly one end (n)
169 V | bar, and you will still see that one end is attractive
170 V | commencement of this lecture. You see here a large machine arranged
171 V | is evolved, as you will see by the rise of the little
172 V | BB), and I want you to see the manner in which that
173 V | taken it away you shall see by an experiment of this
174 V | of the electricity. You see the spark in which it passes,
175 V | any other force. Let us see whether we have it here
176 V | experiment afterward. You see from the spark that I can
177 V | with the hot wire, and you see how I can transfer the heat
178 V | wire to the cotton. So you see that some powers are transferable,
179 V | us to understand. Let us see in what manner these powers
180 V | the copper, and you will see by-and-by that it is being
181 V | through the copper. You will see that this is a very slow
182 V | and wood join, you will see how the heat will accumulate
183 V | it near the machine, you see how the electricity leaves
184 V | different; and, to make you see that more clearly, we will
185 V | at the bottom, you will see the electricity passing
186 V | touch the knob at the top, see how the electricity passes!
187 V | by means of a wire? You see at once that as soon as
188 V | tassel at the top, and you see the power of repulsion with
189 V | tassel did just now. Let us see whether I can succeed in
190 V | fire to the gas.] You now see how it is that this power
191 VI | these; we have not merely to see how it is that one power
192 VI | action taking place. You see all I have to do is to hold
193 VI | them it is that burns? You see a plentiful combustion of
194 VI | chemical affinity, and then to see how far we are enabled to
195 VI | in that retort; there you see the mixture which gives
196 VI | modifies it most curiously. See how that mixture is now
197 VI | That hydrogen which you now see coming off so abundantly
198 VI | allowing them to touch, you see what a coating of copper
199 VI | metal zinc, Here, then, you see a strange transfer of chemical
200 VI | wonderful and beautiful to see? We still have the identical
201 VI | that arrangement which you see behind me. I am using what
202 VI | a strange thing it is to see that this force is brought
203 VI | many years ago, in order to see whether this power from
204 VI | powerful then in existence. You see there are in this glass
205 VI | doubt that some of you will see that they approach before
206 VI | those who are too far off to see them approach will see by
207 VI | to see them approach will see by their burning that they
208 VI | strong is the force. You thus see, from the attractive force
209 VI | wonderful and beautiful to see how this spark is carried
210 VI | more rapid rate than you see in that jar, because the
211 VI | bring the points in contact. See what an exhibition of force
212 VI | therefore the light you see is really the burning of
213 VI | to enable some of you to see the certainty with which
214 VI | contact is made at the battery see what heat we get. Is not
215 VI | passage of the force, you see what an amount of heat is
216 VI | charcoal pole on to it. See how brilliantly it burns!
217 VI | of iron on the charcoal: see what a combustion is going
218 VI | very short time you will see the blue color will be entirely
219 VI | will be entirely destroyed. See, it is colorless now! I
220 VI | now we shall be able to see whether there is any difference
221 VI | this peculiar action. You see it is the one on my right
222 VI | put in it together. You see that these two platinum
223 VI | than the powerful one you see here, because in nature
224 VI | end of the battery, you see that before the circuit
225 VI | contact; watch the needle; see how it is swung round; and
226 VI | break contact again; so, you see, we have this wire evidently
227 VI | find that it was a magnet. See what power it must have
