Crossword-Solution: UNEXTENDED 10 letters, 1 clue 🏆 scrabble score: 19

Tim Whiffler may yet prove a Tartar, And Bylong's the horse that can stay, But Kean is in trouble--and Carter Is hard on the satin-skinn'd bay; And The Barb comes away unextended, Hard held, like a second Eclipse, While behind the hoof-thunder is blended With the whistling and crackling of whips.

Now this is no more true of matter, than of spirit; of an extended compounded substance, than of a simple and unextended.

And, hath it not been made evident that no SUCH substance can possibly exist? And, though it should be allowed to exist, yet how can that which is INACTIVE be a CAUSE; or that which is UNTHINKING be a CAUSE OF THOUGHT? You may, indeed, if you please, annex to the word MATTER a contrary meaning to what is vulgarly received; and tell me you understand by it, an unextended, thinking, active being, which is the cause of our ideas.

Now let me ask you two questions: FIRST, Whether it be agreeable to the usage either of philosophers or others to give the name MATTER to an unextended active being? And, SECONDLY, Whether it be not ridiculously absurd to misapply names contrary to the common use of language? HYL.

For what reason is there why you should call it Spirit? Does not the notion of spirit imply that it is thinking, as well as active and unextended? PHIL.
