[13] An old case of Dr. Dyce's (see The Zoist, vol. iv. p. 158) forms a simple example of this type. Dr. Mesnet's case (De l'Automatisme de la Mémoire, etc. Par le Dr. Ernest Mesnet, Paris, 1874, p. 18, seq.) should also be referred to here. In these instances the secondary state is manifestly a degeneration of the primary state, even when certain traces of supernormal faculty are discernible in the narrowed psychical field.
[14] See The Zoist, vol. iv. pp. 172-79, for a case showing the inevitable accomplishment of a post-epileptic crime in such a way as to bring out its analogy with the inevitable working out of a post-hypnotic suggestion.
