- Cf. "A mixture of wonder & teror almost always excites the feeling of the sublime. Extraordinary power generally excites the feeling of the sublime, by these means, -by mixing wonder with terOr.” Smith's Moral Philosophy p. 217.
"The passion caused by the great & sublime in nature, when those causes operate most powerfully, is astonishment; and astonishment is that state of the Soul, in which all emotions are Suspended, with some degree of horror. In this case, the mind is so entirely filled with its object, that it cannot entertain any other, mor by consequence reason on that which employs it." Burke's Essay on the Sublime & the Beautiful Part II, sects. i. ii. "It seems to me that whatever tends to carry away the mind into the Infinite raises that idea and feeling which are called the Sublime." M’, Cash, "Emotions" p. 89
