the extension of true philosophy». To him Swedenborg expresses
great thankfulness for tlie use he has had of Wolff’s works in the
revision of the Principia. It has however not been possible for me after
comparing it with the works of Wolff referred to, to find those parts of
Swedexborg’s presentation in which he has permitted himself to be
in-fluenced by Wolff’s views, excepting in the use of certain terms.
One must admit that it is a grand thought to attempt to furnish
an explanation of the world according to which a complete harmony
reigns between the greatest and the least — the stellar system and the atom
— or even according to Swedenborg’s conception with its least part, the
material point. It can also be easily understood why Swedenborg, who
believed that he had happily solved this problem, felt the deepest
satis-faction in a work which had occupied so large a portion of his life.
