  1 1 |              FOR INFORMATION ABOUT THE SOUL BUT TO GOD.~HAVING discussed
  2 1 |             point of the origin of the soul, so far as his assumption
  3 1 |            assumption led me, that the soul consisted rather in an adaptation
  4 1 |      skirmished about the state of the soul. I have my doubts at once
  5 1 |             matter. For what could the soul of Socrates then contemplate
  6 1 |               orphan children, yet his soul must have been moved even
  7 1 |         asserts the immortality of the soul by a strong assumption such

 10 2 |              been pleased to endow the soul of man. This intelligence
 11 2 |          special acquaintance with the soul. From this circumstance
 12 2 |            does to know more about the soul, through the more obvious
 13 2 |              several researches on the soul, Philosophy, on the one

 16 3 |                               III. THE SOUL'S ORIGIN DEFINED OUT OF
 17 3 |         strength in contests about the soul with philosophers, those
 18 3 |                is the treatment of the soul according to the sophistical
 19 3 |            deny the immortality of the soul; others affirm that it is
 20 3 |          treatise, when we claimed the soul to be formed by the breathing
 21 3 |               that man became a living soul"--by that inspiration of
 22 4 |               OPPOSITION TO PLATO, THE SOUL WAS CREATED AND ORIGINATED
 23 4 |             settling the origin of the soul, its condition or state
 24 4 |                we acknowledge that the soul originates in the breath
 25 4 |               it, for he will have the soul to be unborn and unmade.
 26 5 |                OF THE STOICS, THAT THE SOUL HAS A CORPOREAL NATURE.~
 27 5 |                ready for stripping the soul of its corporeity, unless
 28 5 |             numbers--asserting for the soul a corporeal nature. Now
 29 5 |          merely to those who mould the soul out of manifest bodily substances,
 30 5 |              in our own terms that the soul is a spiritual essence (
 31 5 |               persuading (us) that the soul is a corporeal substance.
 32 5 |             Indeed, Zeno, defining the soul to be a spirit generated
 33 5 |       generated with (the body) is the soul: it follows, then, that
 34 5 |                follows, then, that the soul is a corporeal substance.
 35 5 |              in characteristics of the soul; as if it were out of a
 36 5 |            caught and reflected by the soul also. It is therefore as
 37 5 |                susceptibility. But the soul certainly sympathizes with
 38 5 |            body, too, suffers with the soul, and is united with it (
 39 5 |              blushes and paleness. The soul, therefore, is (proved to
 40 5 |              quite natural between the soul and the body); for when
 41 5 |                body is deserted by the soul, it is overcome by death.
 42 5 |              is overcome by death. The soul, therefore, is endued with
 43 6 |              OF THE PLATONISTS FOR THE SOUL'S INCORPOREALITY, OPPOSED,
 44 6 |               one, internally. Now the soul receives motion neither
 45 6 |              have no affinity with the soul. For it is impossible for
 46 6 |               it is impossible for the soul to be called either an animate
 47 6 |             one, inasmuch as it is the soul itself which makes the body
 48 6 |               or an inanimate one. The soul is so called in respect
 49 6 |                then, that which is the soul admits not of being called
 50 6 |            have already shown that the soul receives motion from some
 51 6 |                something else! But the soul moves the body, all whose
 52 6 |                from without. It is the soul which gives motion to the
 53 6 |               accrue such power to the soul, if it were incorporeal?
 54 6 |          manifest conclusion, that the soul is incorporeal, its properties
 55 6 |                in these instances, the soul likewise has its contact
 56 6 |               ones, why should not the soul, which is corporeal, be
 57 6 |                substances; whereas the soul, as being an incorporeal
 58 6 |               when he asserts that the soul is even nourished by corporeal
 59 6 |              of all food, does not the soul entirely remove from the
 60 6 |            after discoursing about the soul in the amplest manner, filling
 61 6 |                the corporeality of the soul, although in the process
 62 6 |           shown us from facts that the soul is nourished by corporeal
 63 6 |             about the condition of the soul with the honey-water of
 64 6 |                live? For it is not the soul's actual substance which
 65 6 |    corporeality; since at the rate the soul too must be corporeal, since
 66 7 |                               VII. THE SOUL'S CORPOREALITY DEMONSTRATED
 67 7 |                corporeal nature of the soul. In hell the soul of a certain
 68 7 |               of the soul. In hell the soul of a certain man is in torment,
 69 7 |                the finger of a happier soul, for his tongue, the solace
 70 7 |                reality. For unless the soul possessed corporeality,
 71 7 |           corporeality, the image of a soul could not possibly contain
 72 7 |           wherefore (all this), if the soul is nothing in its subterranean
 73 7 |          punishment or refreshment the soul tastes in Hades, in its
 74 8 |               habit of saying that the soul must be pronounced incorporeal
 75 8 |            weight of a body--since the soul is a bodily substance. But
 76 8 |             and stronger, then, is the soul's corporeal essence, which
 77 8 |             motion! Again, even if the soul is invisible, it is only
 78 8 |           difference in respect of the soul's corporeality, which is (
 79 9 |          SISTER.~When we aver that the soul has a body of a quality
 80 9 |                of the condition of the soul's corporeity, from which
 81 9 |         remains but for us to give the soul a figure? Plato refuses
 82 9 |                as if it endangered the soul's immortality. For everything
 83 9 |         composed of parts; whereas the soul is immortal; and being immortal,
 84 9 |            other manner frames for the soul an effigy of intellectual
 85 9 |             indeed, we inscribe on the soul the lineaments of corporeity,
 86 9 |                ineffable way about the soul. After the people are dismissed
 87 9 |           there has been shown to me a soul in bodily shape, and a spirit
 88 9 |           conviction? Since, then, the soul is a corporeal substance,
 89 9 |             would you attribute to the soul but an etherial transparent
 90 9 |             would be the case with the soul, since in its material nature
 91 9 |                the figure of the human soul from your own conception,
 92 9 |             body which each individual soul animates and moves about.
 93 9 |           consequently become a living soul, surely that breath must
 94 9 |            there arose a fixing of the soul's corporeity; and by the
 95 9 |           distinguished and known. The soul indeed which in the beginning
 96 9 |                substance (of the human soul) and of that (part of) creation~
 97 10|               THE SIMPLE NATURE OF THE SOUL IS ASSERTED WITH PLATO.
 98 10|             THE IDENTITY OF SPIRIT AND SOUL.~It is essential to a firm
 99 10|            declare with Plato that the soul is simple; in other words
100 10|               that there is within the soul a natural substance--the
101 10|               in an examination of the soul of man, to borrow proofs
102 10|                an adjunct of the human soul, for the very reason that
103 10|               accomplished without the soul, to breathe might not be
104 10|               not be a function of the soul, but merely to live. But
105 10|               belongs--that is, to the soul. Well, then, since you separate
106 10|             spirit (or breath) and the soul, separate their operations
107 10|            apart from one another--the soul apart, the spirit apart.
108 10|              the spirit apart. Let the soul live without the spirit;
109 10|             spirit breathe without the soul. Let one of them quit men'
110 10|               and agree. If indeed the soul and the spirit are two,
111 10|             you for believing that the soul and the spirit are but one,
112 10|                difference; so that the soul is itself the spirit, respiration
113 10|          indeed, the question is about soul and spirit, the soul will
114 10|             about soul and spirit, the soul will be (understood to be)
115 11|      EXPRESSIVE OF AN OPERATION OF THE SOUL, NOT OF ITS NATURE. TO BE
116 11|         inquiry obliges me to call the soul spirit or breath, because
117 11|               this (operation) for the soul, which we acknowledge to
118 11|            that is to say) spirit--the soul which we hold to be, by
119 11|            Hermogenes, who derives the soul from matter instead of from
120 11|                would conclude that the soul came from matter rather
121 11|             that passage, maintain the soul to be breath and not the
122 11|        heretics who introduce into the soul some spiritual germ which
123 11|               been) conferred upon the soul by the secret liberality
124 11|                better knowledge of the soul's Maker, or rather God,
125 11|               that man became a living soul, by means of which he was
126 11|             between the spirit and the soul, in such passages as the
127 11|             breath of my Spirit became soul." And again: "He giveth
128 11|              there comes the (natural) soul, that is to say, the breath,
129 11|              possession of the natural soul,) and afterward that which
130 11|         naturally planted with a man's soul at his birth, this soul
131 11|                soul at his birth, this soul must evidently exist apart
132 12|               BETWEEN THE MIND AND THE SOUL, AND THE RELATION BETWEEN
133 12|          inherent and implanted in the soul, and naturally proper to
134 12|                those who determine the soul to be the moving principle
135 12|              all amalgamation with the soul; and yet in another passage
136 12|               incorporates it with the soul. This (inconsistency) Aristotle
137 12|               all association with the soul. For whereas it is evident
138 12|         whereas it is evident that the soul is susceptible of those
139 12|              with the mind. Now if the soul is by nature associated
140 12|           impassible; or again, if the soul suffers not either by the
141 12|               itself. Moreover, if the soul suffers nothing by the mind
142 12|         suffering. But we see that the soul experiences nothing of these
143 12|         separate condition between the soul and mind is to be admitted,
144 12|               useless and void, or the soul. But if these affections
145 12|                mind coalesces with the soul,--not indeed as being distinct
146 13|                              XIII. THE SOUL'S SUPREMACY.~It next remains
147 13|                entire authority to the soul, from the name of which
148 13|          affirms that he lays down his soul (or life), not his mind.
149 13|                s lips--the mind or the soul? Which of the two are dying
150 13|                do with the mind or the soul? In short, philosophers
151 13|             Anima" ("A treatise on the soul"). And that you may also
152 13|              on the subject, it is the soul which He addresses; it is
153 13|                He addresses; it is the soul which He exhorts and counsels,
154 13|            intellect to Him. It is the soul which Christ came to save;
155 13|                came to save; it is the soul which He threatens to destroy
156 13|             destroy in hell; it is the soul (or life) which He forbids
157 13|            made too much of; it is His soul, too (or life), which the
158 13|                His sheep. It is to the soul, therefore, that you ascribe
159 14|                               XIV. THE SOUL VARIOUSLY DIVIDED BY THE
160 14|         philosophers) have divided the soul into parts: Plato, for instance,
161 14|            many as twelve parts in the soul. Posidonius makes even two
162 14|               leading faculties of the soul,--the directing faculty,
163 14|           parts. Thus variously is the soul dissected by the different
164 14|                so much as parts of the soul, as powers, or faculties,
165 14|                or organic parts of the soul's substance, but functions
166 14|        suitable to the sections of the soul; for even the body itself
167 14|       partition as they would have the soul undergo. But of the whole
168 14|              maintain the unity of the soul, as diffused over the entire
169 14|              throughout the organ, the soul displays its energies in
170 15|                                XV. THE SOUL'S VITALITY AND INTELLIGENCE.
171 15|                whether there be in the soul some supreme principle of
172 15|                the ruling power of the soul"--<greek>to</greek> <greek>
173 15|             the whole condition of the soul is put in jeopardy. Indeed,
174 15|            begun by supposing that the soul itself is simply a nonentity.
175 15|               have thus destroyed the (soul's) directing power, by actually
176 15|                their body in which the soul's principle of vitality
177 15|              principle or power of the soul; for if there were, the
178 15|                 for if there were, the soul's vigour and strength could
179 15|               is a ruling power in the soul, and that it is enshrined
180 15|               directing faculty of the soul, with which the purpose
181 15|             the character of the human soul from the condition of brute
182 16|                               XVI. THE SOUL'S PARTS. ELEMENTS OF THE
183 16|               ELEMENTS OF THE RATIONAL SOUL.~That position of Plato'
184 16|                in which he divides the soul into two parts--the rational
185 16|      distinction to the nature (of the soul). It is the rational element
186 16|   thenceforward became inherent in the soul, and grew with its growth,
187 16|                only as existing in the soul of God Himself, if we were
188 16|                to the nature which our soul has received from God, then
189 16|               rational element (of the soul) to God alone, and subdivides
190 16|          concupiscible elements of our soul must not invariably be put
191 17|            exercise opinion; it is the soul that opines. They separated
192 17|                 and sensation from the soul. Well, but whence comes
193 17|              sensation if not from the soul? For if the soul had no
194 17|              from the soul? For if the soul had no body, it would have
195 17|               sensation comes from the soul, and opinion from sensation;
196 17|             the whole (process) is the soul. But further, it may well
197 18|             GNOSTICS. FUNCTIONS OF THE SOUL.~I turn now to the department
198 18|           ground of its disturbing the soul, and not allowing it to
199 18|                 even the powers of the soul, which produce an understanding
200 18|         apparatus or instrument of the soul, and that the spirit is
201 18|             faculty, separate from the soul, but is the soul itself
202 18|              from the soul, but is the soul itself exercised in respiration;
203 18|            regarded as inherent in the soul, and as obedient to it,
204 18|                in other words, not the soul (anima) and the mind (animus).
205 18|             perceived? If it is by the soul, then the mind is a sensuous
206 18|            things are perceived by the soul, then it follows that the
207 18|               then it follows that the soul's power is an intellectual
208 18|                mind, where will be the soul? If it is by the soul, where
209 18|              the soul? If it is by the soul, where will be the mind?
210 18|                mind is absent from the soul on certain occasons; for (
211 18|       therefore maintain that the very soul itself neither saw nor heard,
212 18|             out of his mind, it is his soul that is demented--not because
213 18|              fellow-sufferer (with the soul) at the time. Indeed, it
214 18|                time. Indeed, it is the soul which is principally affected
215 18|          consideration: that after the soul's departure, the mind is
216 18|             man: it always follows the soul; nor does it at last remain
217 18|              Now, since it follows the soul, it is also indissolubly
218 18|       understanding is attached to the soul, which is followed by the
219 18|                peculiar faculty of the soul, just as the senses themselves
220 18|           present subject concerns the soul, and the point is to prevent
221 19|              INTELLECT COEVAL WITH THE SOUL IN THE HUMAN BEING. AN EXAMPLE
222 19|                writers who deprive the soul of the intellect even for
223 19|            infancy is supported by the soul alone, simply to promote
224 19|              of God, which this (human soul) alone is, which we say
225 19|                of a human being, whose soul (which may be compared with
226 19|              very moment of birth (the soul) has to be regarded as endued
227 20|                                XX. THE SOUL, AS TO ITS NATURE UNIFORM,
228 20|              natural properties of the soul are inherent in it as parts
229 20|     circumstances. In like manner, the soul may well be uniform in its
230 20|           affect the one nature of the soul, since they are commonly
231 21|          CHARACTER CHANGE.~Now, if the soul possessed this uniform and
232 21|             principle of vitality, the soul), which we maintain to be
233 21|               is to be ascribed to the soul, it must be supposed to
234 22|      RECAPITULATION. DEFINITION OF THE SOUL.~Hermogenes has already
235 22|               natural faculties of the soul, as well as their vindication
236 22|                it may be seen that the soul is rather the offspring
237 22|            have assigned, then, to the soul both that freedom of the
238 22|               quit this subject of the soul's disposition, in order
239 22|             its various qualities. The soul, then, we define to be sprung
240 22|         evolved out of one (archetypal soul). It remains for us now
241 23|              Valen-tinus fortifies the soul with the germ of Sophia,
242 23|        creatures, having taken for the soul the germ of immortality,
243 23|           belief in all this--that the soul had formerly lived with
244 24|         INCONSISTENCY. HE SUPPOSES THE SOUL SELF-EXISTENT, YET CAPABLE
245 24|                I cannot allow that the soul is capable of a failure
246 24|        divinity; he then adds that the soul is immortal, incorruptible,
247 24|              could he attribute to the soul, if he wanted to call it
248 24|              this very fact reckon the soul as very far below God: for
249 24|          further observed, that if the soul is to merit being accounted
250 24|                divine a faculty as the soul was capable of losing memory:
251 24|                agree very well with my soul, but not with Plato's. In
252 24|               Plato,) do you endow the soul with a natural competency
253 24|              why, from the time of the soul's entrance into the body,
254 24|            fail, as if thenceforth the soul were to be affected by time?
255 24|              affected by time? for the soul, being undoubtedly prior
256 24|             indeed, immediately on the soul's entrance into the body
257 24|               afterwards, will not the soul, during the interval previous
258 24|              comes it to pass that the soul subsequently forgets, and
259 24|             the oblivion oppressed the soul? The whole course of one'
260 24|             endured so long before the soul's assumption of the body.
261 24|                proofs to show that the soul has a divining faculty,
262 24|              does not himself feel his soul possessed with a presage

264 25|                by maintaining that the soul is not conceived in the
265 25|              when he tells us that the soul, being quite a separate

267 25|               when disease attacks the soul or vitality, (it becomes
268 25|              disease where there is no soul or principle of life. Again,
269 25|          motion, are conditions of the soul or life, he who experiences
270 25|             although he imported their soul into infants after birth
271 25|              because the very term for soul, forsooth, in Greek answered
272 25|               for they have called the soul by another name than <greek>
273 25|              good frosty air is to the soul so indispensable a treasure,
274 25|               in the Gadarene. Now one soul is naturally more susceptible

277 25|              he here shows us that the soul proceeds from human seed (
278 25|                that from similarity of soul we resemble our parents
279 25|         produced from this seed of the soul? Why, too, used the old
280 25|               first conception, if his soul also draws not its origin

285 27|             substance of both body and soul formed together at one and
286 27|             the separation of body and soul, life, which is the opposite
287 27|                conjunction of body and soul. If the severance happens
288 27|            because we contend that the soul also begins from conception;
289 27|              moment and place that the soul does. Thus, then, the processes
290 27|                what to the seed of the soul? Besides, if different periods
291 27|     intercourse, we know that both the soul and the flesh discharge
292 27|         discharge a duty together: the soul supplies desire, the flesh
293 27|               gratification of it; the soul furnishes the instigation,
294 27|                and its warmth from the soul. Now if the soul in Greek
295 27|              from the soul. Now if the soul in Greek is a word which
296 27|              body grows cold after the soul has quitted it? Indeed (
297 27|              feel that somewhat of our soul has gone from us? And do

300 31|              are imbued with an infant soul at their birth. But how
301 31|              life as an infant? If the soul, whilst disembodied, decreases
302 31|              of a military and warlike soul, as is proved by the very
303 32|                is this: that the human soul cannot by any means at all
304 32|                let us suppose that the soul is either fire, or water,
305 32|     before-mentioned natures the human soul is composed, it would not
306 32|          different conditions that the soul of man has had assigned
307 32|               then, shall that (human) soul which cleaves to the earth,
308 32|       fish-pond,--(how, I say, shall a soul which is beset with such
309 32|         whatever the mode of the human soul, (the question is forced
310 32|               size is filled up by the soul, and that the soul is entirely
311 32|              by the soul, and that the soul is entirely covered by the
312 32|               therefore, shall a man's soul fill an elephant? How, likewise,
313 32|               another question: If the soul is by no means capable of
314 32|            what it once was, the human soul will not be what it was;
315 32|           course to be ascribed to the soul which will cease to exist,
316 32|            change. For only then can a soul be said to experience this
317 32|       condition. Since, therefore, the soul does not admit of change,
318 32|              selfsame substance of the soul everywhere repeated its
319 32|                all that an identity of soul. Now the similarity of nature
320 32|                 you confess that their soul is not identical; for you
321 33|      recognised, when he said that the soul, after its separation from
322 33|               dissipated back into the soul of the universe, but retained

330 36|      established the position that the soul is seminally placed in man,

348 38|              natural properties of the soul which relate to sense and
349 38|                association of body and soul which We have now to consider,

353 38|             caviller, who, because the soul apparently wants ailments,
354 38|          ailments, would insist on the soul's being from this circumstance
355 38|              for a special object. The soul, therefore, will desire
356 38|              no doubt the house of the soul, and the soul is the temporary
357 38|             house of the soul, and the soul is the temporary inhabitant

364 40|              being some faculty of his soul, and a personal quality;
365 40|                although annexed to the soul as a chattel or as an instrument
366 40|         because nothing is done by the soul without the flesh in operations
367 40|             are usually imputed to the soul: "Whosoever looketh on a
368 40|               flesh alone, without the soul, ever done in operations
369 41| NOTWITHSTANDING THE DEPRAVITY OF MAN'S SOUL BY ORIGINAL SIN, THERE IS
370 41|                which supervenes on the soul from the intervention of
371 41|               a portion of good in the soul, of that original, divine,

374 41|               and Good-bye! Just as no soul is without sin, so neither
375 41|         without sin, so neither is any soul without seeds of good. Therefore,

388 43|             Stoics, by determining the soul to be a temporary suspension
389 43|             the body only, not for the soul also. For the soul, as being
390 43|             for the soul also. For the soul, as being always in motion,
391 43|              were it not for it, not a soul could provide agency for
392 43|              last buried--awaiting the soul in both stages, in the former
393 43|              withdrawal. Meanwhile the soul is circumstanced in such

395 44|             used to be deprived of his soul in his sleep, as if it wandered

398 44|            such that the repose of his soul was a state of actual idleness

403 45|         ecstasy, in which the sensuous soul stands out of itself, in
404 45|                the ecstasy fell on his soul to remove rest: from that
405 45|             how, you will ask, can the soul remember its dreams, when
406 46|                the dreams by which the soul is excited. And when shall
407 47|             consist of those which the soul itself apparently creates
408 47|    circumstances. Now, inasmuch as the soul cannot dream of its own
409 47|              nature, reserving for the soul, even when in the ecstatic
410 47|              inspiration, nor from the soul, being beyond the reach
411 48|         because then the vigour of the soul emerges, and heavy sleep
412 48|            winter somehow hardens, the soul; while autumn, which in
413 48|                 is apt to enervate the soul by the lusciosness of its

416 49|               all the functions of the soul throughout life are ac-complished
417 49|              are the emotions of their soul as it dreams, which so readily

427 51|               favour the relics of the soul, but as if it would avert
428 51|           murderers. The truth is, the soul is indivisible, because
429 51|            accruing indivisibly to the soul, not indeed because it is
430 51|               in its operation, if the soul were divisible into particles,
431 51|            behind for a portion of the soul. I am not ignorant that
432 51|            than from any relics of the soul: for if there were a residue
433 51|                 If any fraction of the soul remain, it makes a living
434 52|           death--the separation of the soul from the body. Putting out

439 53|             But where at last will the soul have to lodge, when it is
440 53|            preserving the truth of the soul's immortality, whilst treating
441 53|             seems to intimate that the soul escapes by degrees, and
442 53|        domiciles, and spaces, that the soul also itself, being driven

465 56|          therefore maintain that every soul, whatever be its age on
466 57|               of our salvation and our soul at one swoop. In this way,
467 57|          spirit--even to represent the soul of Samuel, when Saul consulted
468 57|                should suppose that the soul of any saint, much less

477 58|              Full well, then, does the soul even in Hades know how to
478 58|      appointment of God! Moreover, the soul executes not all its operations
479 58|               is most fitting that the soul, without at all waiting
480 58|             done through the flesh the soul is the first to conceive
481 58|           hesitate to believe that the soul undergoes in Hades some
482 58|           human opinion concerning the soul, and tried its character
