IDENTICAL CHANGES 



We can not directly perceive such a universal dis- 

 placement of void matter. We cannot comprehend 

 its origin. We can scarcely determine its direction 

 between nearby bodies in stellar space. 



The alternate hypothesis concerning the manner 

 of the flow of universal material may be decidedly 

 wrong. But the displacement of void matter as the 

 origin of every change in ponderable material, this 

 will not be found wrong in the years to come. 



And the identity of Forms, material and ever- 

 changing, yet indestructible through constant re- 

 production, is a creation by an Infinite Cause, 

 whether they were created identical forms, or a 

 mechanical result of the addition of motion to a 

 Universe. 



And that Identity of Form, every identical Pri- 

 mary Sphere in its identical place, may not this be 

 renewed after total destruction by the Infinite 

 Power that first assembled the first similar Form? 



And may not then the life of the Identity be no 

 more the result of change, but change itself be no 

 more !
