should contain or be accompanied with directions for gaining experiences

Collective Subject' of the assertion. My use of the word Subject,
thus differs from that of the grammarians in two respects;
first in that they apply it to a noun and I to the thing
which the noun denotes, and secondly, in that they restrict the
term 'Subject' to the Subject Nominative, which I extend it to that
which is denoted by the direct object, and to that which is denoted by
the indirect object, and to everything else with which one must be already
