OverviewExcerpt from Georgical Essays, Vol. 5 The celebrated Spallanzani justly observes, that when we interrogate nature, we mutt be divested of all prejudice which obscures the fair face of truth; and with an amiable indifference, we ought to judge equally of ourselves as we do of others. If, on the con trary, we are prepofsefsed with Wishes, disv trust, and doubts, we shall be disposed to think well of experiments from the side favouring our desire, and not from that which is adverse to it. Our opinions will con sequently be incorrect; and instead of adding useful facts to philosophy, We shall increase the number of errors.
