Finally, 124 VII, 5 | take place as long as the soul is clothed with the abode 125 VII, 5 | between the body and the soul, then evil will be disunited 126 VII, 5 | the body perishes and the soul remains, so evil will perish 127 VII, 5 | unpleasantness of which the soul, being offended, might shrink 128 VII, 8 | OF THE IMMORTALITY OF THE SOUL.~The one chief good, therefore, 129 VII, 8 | respecting the immortality of the soul, yet he did not speak respecting 130 VII, 8 | linking together, that the soul of man could not be otherwise 131 VII, 8 | heavenly; because of the soul, which conceives such great 132 VII, 8 | respecting the immortality of the soul. And although all these 133 VII, 9 | OF THE IMMORTALITY OF THE SOUL, AND OF VIRTUE.~By these 134 VII, 9 | it is credible that the soul, since it is not seen, does 135 VII, 9 | comprehend with the mind how the soul can retain its perception 136 VII, 9 | that the immortality of the soul may be discerned from the 137 VII, 9 | it is evident that the soul does not perish, nor undergo 138 VII, 9 | accordance with nature if the soul is extinguished; for it 139 VII, 10| also the immortality of the soul may be inferred. All vices 140 VII, 10| virtue itself shows that the soul of man, if it has received 141 VII, 10| and perturbations of the soul; virtue, on the contrary, 142 VII, 10| which the one belongs to the soul, the other to the body; 143 VII, 10| the other relating to the soul, which is acquired by wickedness 144 VII, 11| THE LAST TIMES, AND OF THE SOUL AND BODY.~Therefore, when 145 VII, 11| Again, as the life of the soul is everlasting, in which 146 VII, 11| the works of the body and soul?

But the soul of itself 151 VII, 11| assistance of the soul. But the soul of itself desires many things 152 VII, 11| remembrance of the name. For the soul even in opposition to the 153 VII, 11| it is credible that the soul does not perish, but is 154 VII, 11| can do nothing without the soul, but the soul can do many 155 VII, 11| without the soul, but the soul can do many and great things 156 VII, 11| the touch, therefore the soul is immortal for this reason, 157 VII, 12| XII. OF THE SOUL AND THE BODY, AND OF THEIR 158 VII, 12| book. Since, he says, the soul is born together with the 159 VII, 12| eyes and the hand; but the soul is slight, and eluding the 160 VII, 12| earth, and made firm; the soul has in it nothing concrete, 161 VII, 12| under the touch; but the soul, which by its slightness 162 VII, 12| which he draws, that the soul suffers dissolution, that 163 VII, 12| perish together with the soul; but when the soul departs 164 VII, 12| with the soul; but when the soul departs it remains entire 165 VII, 12| are produced together, the soul would not hastily depart 166 VII, 12| perish as quickly as the soul departs: yes, truly, the 167 VII, 12| body, being dissolved, the soul would vanish, as moisture 168 VII, 12| after the departure of the soul does not immediately flow 169 VII, 12| its origin, therefore the soul, which is not frail, endures 170 VII, 12| it is mortal. First, the soul is not the same thing as 171 VII, 12| which is at rest, not the soul; and in those who are mad, 172 VII, 12| mind is extinguished, the soul remains; and therefore they 173 VII, 12| not said to be without a soul, but to be deprived of their 174 VII, 12| lessened according to age. The soul is always in its own condition; 175 VII, 12| In the next place, the soul, although inspired by God, 176 VII, 12| it is confined? But the soul, be says, is also subject 177 VII, 12| eternal torments. For the soul cannot entirely perish, 178 VII, 12| God, which is eternal. The soul, he says, is sensible even 179 VII, 12| its abode. For, since the soul is united with the body, 180 VII, 12| see nothing, so also the soul, when separated, can perceive 181 VII, 12| the case supposed; for the soul is not a part of the body, 182 VII, 12| or the receptacle of the soul. Now, that is a much more 183 VII, 12| argument which says that the soul appears to be mortal because 184 VII, 12| the limbs grow cold the soul is breathed forth. For, 185 VII, 12| the sensibility of the soul is extinguished and perishes. 186 VII, 12| perishes. For it is not the soul that becomes senseless when 187 VII, 12| becomes senseless when the soul takes its departure, because 188 VII, 12| sensibility with it. But since the soul by its presence gives sensibility 189 VII, 12| and this shows that the soul continues to exist. Other 190 VII, 13| XIII.
