384, 199, 390, &c.
467. The co-operation of neither the cerebral forces nor the mind is necessary to the natural functions of the oesophagus, stomach, and intestines, excited as nerve-actions by external invpressions ; they can take place in animals deprived of both (418).
468. The oesophagus and gastro-intestinal canal are directly excited by numerous external stimuli. Food of various kinds, air, medicines, poisons, injuries, &c., excite contractions at the point of irritation, which are propa...gated to their whole extent as a result of the direct nerve-actions of the external impression (446). Those excitants, which can excite an agreeable external sensation, produce only natural movements in these viscera : those which would excite pain, excite convulsive contractions, as in muscles (compare § 452).
469. In accordance with these views, it follows that the entire process of digestion, considered as an animal function, is the result of the nerve-actions of the external impressions derived from the food in contact with the digestive organs, and it may, therefore, take place quite independently either of brain or mind.
