Enquire within upon everything

Robert Kemp Philp
525
1405.
continued...
"If
therefore
a
person
unacquainted
with
swimming
and
falling
accidentally
into
the
water,
could
have
presence
of
mind
sufficient
to
avoid
struggling
and
plunging,
and
to
let
the
body
take
this
natural
position,
he
might
continue
long
safe
from
drowning,
till,
perhaps,
help
should
come;
for,
as
to
the
clothes,
their
additional
weight
when
immersed
is
very
inconsiderable,
the
water
supporting
it;
though
when
he
comes
out
of
the
water,
he
will
find
them
very
heavy
indeed.
1406.

"But
I
would
not
advise
any
one
to
depend
on
having
this
presence
of
mind
on
such
an
occasion,
but
learn
fairly
to
swim,
as
I
wish
all
men
were
taught
do
in
their
youth;
they
would
on
many
occasions,
be
the
safer
for
having
that
skill;
and
on
many
more,
the
happier,
as
free
from
painful
apprehensions
of
danger,
to
say
nothing
of
the
enjoyment
in
so
delightful
and
wholesome
an
exercise.
Soldiers
particularly
should,
methinks,
all
be
taught
to
swim;
it
might
be
of
frequent
use,
either
in
surprising
an
enemy
or
saving
themselves;
and
if
I
had
now
boys
to
educate,
I
should
prefer
those
schools
(other
things
being
equal)
where
an
opportunity
was
afforded
for
acquiring
so
advantageous
an
art,
which,
once
learned,
is
never
forgotten.
1407.
"I
know
by
experience,
that
it
is
a
great
comfort
to
a
swimmer,
who
has
a
considerable
distance
to
go,
to
turn
himself
sometimes
on
his
back,
and
to
vary,
in
other
respects,
the
means
of
procuring
a
progressive
motion.
