For SOUND is propagated in the spirit and in all directions.
For the VOICE of a figure is compleat in all its parts.
For a man speaks HIMSELF from the crown of his head to the sole of his feet.
For ECHO is the soul of the voice exerting itself in hollow places.
For the VOICE is from the body and the spirit--and is a body and a spirit.
--Christopher Smart, 1722-1771
