Note 54 — Chapter X · OF THE NATURAL TERMINATION OF THE TWO LIVES.
F. Gold translation
The animal no doubt does not tremble at the moment of death; for he does not see it. His present sensation is every thing to him. If he suffers at the approach of death, he shows it by the usual signs; but it is only the present pain that he expresses, he sees nothing beyond. The child is in this respect, in the same situation as the animal.
