, under 'George Grote.' Bentham's MS. is in the British Museum, and shows, I think, that Grote's share in the work was a good deal more than mere editing. I quote from a reprint by Truelove (1875). It was also privately reprinted by Grote himself in 1866. [611] Cf. Hobbes's definition: 'Fear of power invisible feigned by the mind, or imagined from tales publicly allowed, [is] Religion: not allowed, Superstition. And when the power imagined is truly such as we imagine, True Religion.'--_Works_ (Molesworth), iii. 45. [612] 'Philip Beauchamp,' ch. ii. pp. 11-15. [613] _Ibid._ p. 17. [614] 'Philip Beauchamp,' p. 21. [615] _Ibid._ pp. 22 and 104. [616] 'Philip Beauchamp,' ch. iii. [617] 'Philip Beauchamp,' ch. iv. [618] _Ibid._ p. 45, ch. v. [619] _Ibid._ p. 52, ch. vi. [620] 'Philip Beauchamp,' ch. viii. [621] _Ibid._ part ii. ch. i. [622] _Ibid._ p. 80, part ii. ch. ii. [623] 'Philip Beauchamp,' pp. 97, 99. [624] _Ibid._ p. 101. [625] _Ibid._ p. 103. [626] 'Philip Beauchamp,' p. 163. [627] _Ibid._ p. 122. [628] The writers were Chalmers, Kidd, Whewell, Sir Charles Bell, Roget, Buckland, Kirby, and Prout. The essays appeared from 1833 to 1835. The versatile Brougham shortly afterwards edited Paley's _Natural Theology_. [629] 'Philip Beauchamp,' p. 88. [630] Froude's _Carlyle_, i. 215; ii. 93. [631] Mill's _Dissertations_, i. 235; ii. 130. [632] George Borrow's vehement dislike of Scott as the inventor of Puseyism and modern Jesuitism of all kinds is characteristic. [633] _Prelude_, bk. xiii. [634] Coleridge's _Letters_ (1890), pp. 643-49. [635] Mr. Hutchison Stirling insists upon this in the _Fortnightly Review_ for July 1867. He proves, I think, that Coleridge's knowledge of the various schemes of German philosophy and of the precise relation of Kant, Fichte, and Schelling was altogether desultory and confused. How far this is important depends upon whether we attach much or little importance to precise combinations of words used by these philosophers. [636] _Dissertations_, i. 392-474. [637] _Ibid._ i. 424. [638] _Dissertations_, i. 437. [639] _Ibid._ i. 425-27. [640] _Dissertations_, i. 437. [641] Coleridge's _Hints towards the Formation of a more Comprehensive Theory of Life_, edited by S. B. Watson, in 1848, is a curious attempt to apply his evolution doctrine to natural science.
