Paperback, [PU: Forgotten Books], Excerpt from An Essay on the Physiology of the Eye The first of Sir William Hamiltons well-known propositions cm-demonstrative of the immediacy of visualspace apprehension is, that we see colour - a truth which all will admit. His second proposition, that the power of seeing colour necessarily involves the power of perceiving differences of colour, is universally accepted by Intuitionalists, as well as by a large number of Soi-disant Associationalists. A rudimentary conception must be allowed, for it is evident that without moving the eye, we are capable of having two sensations of colour at once, and that the boundary which separates the colours, must give some specific affection of sight, otherwise we should have no discriminative affections capable of afterwards becoming, by association, representatives of the cognition of lines and figures, which we owe to the tactual and muscular sense.
