Excerpt from Colloquia Peripatetica Deep-Sea Soundings: Being Notes of Conversations This volume requires a brief note in explanation. During part of the summers of 1859 and 1860, Dr. Duncan and I lived under the same roof in a seaside Fifeshire village. I was the constant companion of his waking hours. I had just left the philosophical classes of the University, and begun the study of theology; and day by day our conversations turned to those questions where Philosophy and Theology meet: - the relations of the Infinite and finite, the nature of our knowledge of God, the human will in its relation to the Divine, and anthropology generally; - while I was ready, from admiration at once of his intellect, his learning, and his character, to treasure almost everything, he said. Of these conversations I took rapid pencil-notes at the moment, and wrote them out in ink afterwards; and many memorable words fell from his lips during these months of familiar intercourse and discussion.
