Enquire within upon everything

Crying.
If
we
Inquire
into
the
Cause
which
produces
the
crying
of
infants,
we
shall
find
that
it
seldom
originates
from
pain,
or
uncomfortable
sensations,
for
those
who
are
apt
to
imagine
that
such
causes
must
always
operate
on
the
body
of
an
infant,
are
egregiously
mistaken;
inasmuch
as
they
conceive
that
the
physical
condition,
together
with
the
method
of
expressing
sensations,
is
the
same
in
infants
and
adults.
2041.
Difference.
It
requires,
however,
no
demonstration
to
prove
that
the
state
of
the
former
is
essentially
different
from
that
of
the
latter.

Power.
In
the
First
Year
of
Infancy,
many
expressions
of
the
tender
organs
are
to
be
considered
only
as
efforts
of
manifestations
of
power.
2043.
Exertions.
We
observe,
for
instance,
that
a
child,
as
soon
as
it
is
undressed,
or
disencumbered
from
swaddling
clothes,
moves
its
arms
and
legs,
and
often
makes
a
variety
of
strong
exertions;
yet
no
reasonable
person
would
suppose
that
such
attempts
arise
from
a
preternatural
or
oppressive
state
of
the
little
agent.
2044.
Exercise.
It
is
therefore
equally
absurd
to
draw
an
unfavourable
inference
from
every
inarticulate
cry;
because,
in
most
instances,
these
vociferating
sounds
imply
the
effort
which
children
necessarily
make
to
display
the
strength
of
their
lungs,
and
exercise
the
organs
of
respiration.
