Metaphor
"For in their bond of mutual recognition or brain-consciousness, the sense apparatus, in all, is external to the centre storehouse or emporium of consciousness."
Metaphor in Context
In other words, the side of strength will be outwards, and of weakness towards the centre of revolution, which is inwards. The principle, then, of evergency, or turning outwards--as vegetables, which grow by the root much less than outwardly from the earth--is apparently implanted upon nature generally, with here and there exceptions; and it is the same principle which is implanted upon all the senses. For in their bond of mutual recognition or brain-consciousness, the sense apparatus, in all, is external to the centre storehouse or emporium of consciousness.
