Large.--With Time large, one will readily recollect the date of
transactions that have come under his attention, will be fond of
history, and will especially recollect the precise time of each event.
He will be enabled to perform an action at the given word of command.
If in the habit of dancing, will excel, and take great delight in that
amusement. He will be able to judge the hour of the day, without the
aid of a time piece, with accuracy.
Moderate.--With Time moderate, one will recollect none but the most
important dates. If Eventuality is large, will be fond of history, but
will generally forget the time of transactions, and thus want clearness
in his historical knowledge. He will often forget the day of the week
and even his own age.
Small.--With this organ small, one will be nearly deficient in the
attributes ascribed to its functions.
11. TUNE.
This organ gives the taste for music, and makes its possessor take a
high degree of pleasure in listening to musical performances.
Predominant.--With this organ predominant, one will have an exquisite
taste for music, will make any sacrifices to enjoy the pleasure it
imparts, and will readily catch and learn tunes almost by intuition.
Large.--With this organ large, one will have a superior taste for
music, and will easily learn tunes, and if his voice be good, will
easily learn to sing. If Ideality is large, his performances will be
rich and pathetic.
Moderate.--With this organ moderate, one will possess a considerable
taste for music, and with a good voice and large Imitation, may learn
to sing from hearing others, but can never excel.
Small.--With this organ small, one may be fond of music of particular
kinds to which he has been accustomed, but this will not enable him to
learn or practice music.
12. LANGUAGE.
The function of this organ is to enable its possessor to express his
ideas in appropriate language, and thus to communicate thoughts and
sentiments. The talent of verbal memory depends on this organ.
Predominant.--Those in whom this organ predominates abound with
words. They talk merely for the sake of talking, and their style in
writing and speaking is characterized by great verbosity. In ordinary
conversation they will use a great multitude of words to express a
common idea, and will be distinguished among their acquaintance as
intolerable talkers. They will be able to commit words to memory with
readiness, and will recollect forms of expression, where otherwise the
idea would escape them.
