   note: this term was formerly used to express the same idea as
         psychological. recent metaphysicians, however, have
         employed it to mark the difference between psychh` the
         living principle in man, and pney^ma the rational or
         spiritual part of his nature. in this use, the word
         describes the human soul in its relation to sense,
         appetite, and the outer visible world, as distinguished
         from spiritual or rational faculties, which have to do
         with the supersensible world. --heyse.
