Excerpt from Intermediate Lessons in Natural Philosophy
Experiment Place the goblet in the sunlight, while filled to the brim with water. The sunlight Will then also fill the goblet. Observe that none Of the water runs out.
Experiment Hold a book so that its shadow falls on the goblet. Observe that the goblet is as full of water as before.
The sunlight, or the Shadow Of the book, can then be in the same place that the water is; they are not therefore kinds of matter.
