     all science.
   3      Physical science (so-called) is human knowledge,--a
     law of mortal mind, a blind belief, a Samson shorn of his
     strength. When this human belief lacks organ-

     Having neither moral might, spiritual basis,
     nor holy Principle of its own, this belief mistakes effect

  27  creation must collapse. Human knowledge calls them
     forces of matter; but divine Science declares that they
     belong wholly to divine Mind, are inherent in this
