Excerpt from An Appeal to Philosophers, by Name, on the Demonstration of Vision in the Brain, and Against the Attack by Sir David Brewster on the Rationale of Cerebral Vision

My Lord; It is indispensable, to the statement of my case, that I should be permitted to trespass upon your Lordship's notice the fact that, the Individual, who thus looks up for succour, is an Old Man, who has accomplished the ominous and fore-closing age of three score and ten years One half of which have been consumed in a most arduous pursuit Of Abstract Speculations, in an extent which has exhausted more of health, and of life; not to add relinquishment of fortune also than I believe could be truly said of the case of any other votary of the subjects in question.
