We came to know that we had found the greatest power on earth. For it defies all the laws known to men. WE CAME TO KNOW THAT WE HAD FOUND THE GREATEST POWER ON EARTH FOR IT DEFIES ALL THE LAWS KNOWN TO MEN
e have found a secret unknown to all our brothers. We know not what this power is nor whence it comes. But we know its nature, we have watched it and worked with it. We saw it first two years ago. One night, we were cutting open the body of a dead frog when we saw its leg jerking. It was dead, yet it moved. Some power unknown to men was making it move. We could not understand it. Then, after many tests, we found the answer. The frog had been hanging on a wire of copper; and it had been the metal of our knife which had sent the strange power to the copper through the brine of the frog’s body. We put a piece of copper and a piece of zinc into a jar of brine, we touched a wire to them, and there, under our fingers, was a miracle which had never occurred before, a new miracle and a new power. This discovery haunted us. We followed it in preference to all our studies. We worked with it, we tested it in more ways than we can describe, and each step was as another miracle unveiling before us. E WHO WILL SEEK THEM WE KNOW FOR WE HAVE FOUND A SECRET UNKNOWN TO ALL OUR BROTHERS WE KNOW NOT WHAT THIS POWER IS NOR WHENCE IT COMES BUT WE KNOW IT IS NATURE WE HAVE WATCHED IT AND WORKED WITH IT WE SAW IT FIRST TWO YEARS AGO ONE NIGHT WE WERE CUTTING OPEN THE BODY OF A DEAD FROG WHEN WE SAW ITS LEG JERKING IT WAS DEAD YET IT MOVED SOME POWER UNKNOWN TO MEN WAS MAKING IT MOVE WE COULD NOT UNDERSTAND IT THEN AFTER MANY TESTS WE FOUND THE ANSWER THE FROG HAD BEEN HANGING ON A WIRE OF COPPER AND IT HAD BEEN THE METAL OF OUR KNIFE WHICH HAD SENT A STRANGE POWER TO THE COPPER THROUGH THE BRINE OF THE FOG'SDY WE PUT A PIECE OF COPPER AND A PIECE OF ZINC INTO A JAR OF BRINE WE TOUCHED A WIRE TO THEM AND THERE UNDER OUR FINGERS WAS A MIRACLE WHICH HAD NEVER OCCURRED BEFORE A NEW MIRACLE AND A NEW POWER THIS DISCOVERY HAUNTED US WE FOLLOWED IT IN PREFERENCE TO ALL OUR STUDIES WE WORKED WITH IT WE TESTED IT IN MORE WAYS THAN WE CAN DESCRIBE AND EACH STEP WAS ANOTHER MIRACLE UNVEILING BEFORE US
