Explore "Iron and Heat" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Iron is the most ductile of all hard metals, and the hardest of all ductile / metals. With the exception of nickel, in which it is dimly seen, iron is / the only metal in which the magnetic power is visible. Indeed, it is almost / impossible to purify nickel of iron.
Galvanism is the union of electricity and magnetism, and, by being / continuous, it exhibits an image of life; -- I say, an image only: it is / life in death.
Heat is the mesothesis or indifference of light and matter.
