On this question, therefore, as to whether sensibles ever exist at times when they are not experienced, I have only to say that I think there is certainly no good reason whatever for asserting that no sensibles do; and that I think perhaps a certain amount of weight ought to be attached to our instinctive belief that certain kinds of sensibles do; and that here again any special arguments which may be brought forward to show that, whether some sensibles exist unexperienced or not, this kind certainly do not, are, so far as I can see, wholly inconclusive.
