S6 OBSERVATIONS ON THE
sciatic nerve has been cut, has its minute vessels actuated by an energy
which may, stri&ly speaking, be called nervous, and which seems to be ana-
logous to the energy which operates on the parts of those animals, for in-
ilance, the echinus marinus, in which I have not found any organ resem-
bling our brain, or is, perhaps, like to the energy by which the parts of the
vegetable kingdom are a&uated.
6. In consequence of this idea, we ihould, in palfy, and other diseases
of the nervous system, not confine our attention entirely to the state of the
encephalon, the supposed sole origin of the nerves, but ought to attend to
the state of circulation in the limbs affe&ed.
