Note 46 — Chapter III
Reading edition
I can quote two observations in support of this. M. Brieux, to whom I was relating this part of my argument, stopped me, saying, "You have guessed right; I represent to myself thought issuing from brain in the form of an electric gleam." Dr. Simon also informed me, during the reading of my manuscript, that he saw "thought floating over the brain like an ignis fatuus."
