Página vi - Une mouche survient, et des chevaux s'approche, Prétend les animer par son bourdonnement, Pique l'un, pique l'autre, et pense à tout moment Qu'elle fait aller la machine, S'assied sur le timon, sur le nez du cocher.
Página 14 - A chemical action can only take place between two bodies, however great their affinity, if they are in intimate contact with each other ; and the rapidity of this action will be so much greater, the more numerous the points of contact are.
Página 13 - ... boils at 212°. The heat of the air in Great Britain varies from below 32° in the winter, up to 80° or 90° in the summer. "Whether exposed to one temperature or another, the heat of the body is always 98°, thus showing that its heat depends on internal sources. This heat is produced by the contact of the oxygen of the air with the carbon and hydrogen contained in the tissues and the blood. The food containing carbon and hydrogen is brought in contact with the oxygen of the air, and uniting...
