Certainly a child newly born in Boston, who gets a sensation from the candle-flame which lights the bedroom, or from his diaper-pin, does not feel either of these objects to be situated in longitude 72° W. and latitude 41° N. He does not feel them to be in the third story of the house. He does not even feel them in any distinct manner to be to the right or the left of any of the other sensations which he may be getting from other objects in the room at the same time. He does not, in short, know anything _about_ their space-relations to anything else in the world. The flame fills its own place, the pain fills its own place; but as yet these places are neither identified with, nor discriminated from, any other places. That comes later. For the places thus first sensibly known are elements of the child's space-world which remain with him all his life; and by memory and later experience he learns a vast number of things _about_ those places which at first he did not know. But to the end of time certain places of the world remain defined for him as the places _where those sensations were_; and his only possible answer to the question _where anything is_ will be to say '_there_,' and to name some sensation or other like those first ones, which shall identify the spot. Space _means_ but the aggregate of all our possible sensations. There is no duplicate space known _aliunde_, or created by an 'epoch-making achievement' into which our sensations, originally spaceless, are dropped. They _bring_ space and all its places to our intellect, and do not derive it thence. By his body, then, the child later means simply _that place where_ the pain from the pin, and a lot of other sensations like it, were or are felt. It is no more true to say that he locates that pain in his body, than to say that he locates his body in that pain. Both are true: that pain is part of what he _means by the word body_. Just so by the outer world the child means nothing more than _that place where_ the candle-flame and a lot of other sensations like it are felt. He no more locates the candle in the outer world than he locates the outer world in the candle. Once again, he does both; for the candle is part of what he _means_ by 'outer world.' * * * * *
