28 2 | few the things are, the~which if a man lays hold of, he
29 2 | he is able to live a life which flows~in quiet, and is like

35 2 | more blameable than those which are committed through~anger.
36 2 | he said that the offence which is~committed with pleasure
37 2 | more blameable than that which is committed~with pain;
38 2 | to fall into it. Now that which does not make a man worse,~

41 2 | their parts all the things which present themselves to the

377 7 | made worse. But the parts which are harmed by pain, let
378 7 | sands, so in life the events which go~before are soon covered
379 7 | are soon covered by those which come after.~ From Plato:
380 7 | man a sufficient answer, which~is this: Thou sayest not
381 7 | friend, reflect whether that which is noble and good is~not
382 7 | foresee also the things which will be. For they will~certainly
383 7 | the order of the things which take place now: accordingly~
384 7 | more wilt thou see?~ ~ That which has grown from the earth
385 7 | to the earth,~ But that which has sprung from heavenly
386 7 | from death.~ The breeze which heaven has sent~ We must
387 7 | conformably to the reason which is common~to gods and men,
388 7 | by means of the activity which is successful and~proceeds
389 7 | nature through the things which happen to thee, and thy~
390 7 | nature through the acts which must be done by thee. But
391 7 | every~being ought to do that which is according to its constitution;
392 7 | to nature the remainder which~is allowed thee.~ Love that
393 7 | allowed thee.~ Love that only which happens to thee and is spun
394 7 | suitable?~ In everything which happens keep before thy
395 7 | not leave these agitations which are foreign to nature, to~
396 7 | making use of the things~which happen to thee? For then
397 7 | a good man in every act which thou doest: and~remember...~
398 7 | and firm to meet onsets~which are sudden and unexpected.~
399 7 | perceive that many things which~are disagreeable to us are
400 7 | members of this kneaded matter which has grown around thee. For~
401 7 | ready use of the objects which are presented to it, so
402 7 | judgement may say to the thing which falls under its observation:
403 7 | the use shall say to that~which falls under the hand: Thou
404 7 | seeking; for~to me that which presents itself is always
405 7 | for the exercise of art,~which belongs to man or God. For
406 7 | man or God. For everything which happens has a~relationship
407 7 | fly from his own~badness, which is indeed possible, but
408 7 | from other men's~badness, which is impossible.~ Whatever
409 7 | the chief things towards which the ruling power of the~
410 8 | If~he has principles from which come his affects and his
411 8 | What~principles? Those which relate to good and bad:
412 8 | is nothing good for man, which does not make him just,~
413 8 | that there is nothing bad, which does~not do the contrary
414 8 | to that~place the things which are in this, to change them,
415 8 | aversions to the things which are in its power, and when
416 8 | leaf is part of a nature which has~not perception or reason,
417 8 | man is part of a nature which is not subject to impediments,
418 8 | something useful; but that which is good must be something
419 8 | irrational animals. But~that which is according to each individual'
420 8 | such and~such things of which it is productive; and for
421 8 | is thy own, the activity which is exerted according to~
422 8 | thou canst,~correct that which is the cause; but if thou
423 8 | without a purpose.~ That which has died falls not out of
424 8 | dissolved into its proper parts, which~are elements of the universe
425 8 | point.~ Attend to the matter which is before thee, whether
426 8 | source of all things, from which all that happens is~derived.~
427 8 | universe and of the things which happen in it.~ There are
428 8 | things: the one~to the body which surrounds thee; the second
429 8 | to the divine cause~from which all things come to all;
430 8 | value.- Remember this power~which thou hast from nature.~
431 8 | of the Pompeii; and that which is inscribed on the tombs-
432 8 | transfer thy efforts to~that which is allowed, another opportunity
433 8 | before thee in place of that which was hindered, and one which~
434 8 | which was hindered, and one which~will adapt itself to this
435 8 | itself to this ordering of which we are speaking.~ Receive
436 8 | consider the~kindness by which he has distinguished man,
437 8 | predestined place everything which stands in the way and opposes
438 8 | all the various troubles which thou~mayest expect to befall
439 8 | thyself,~What is there in this which is intolerable and past
440 8 | rational animal I see no virtue which~is opposed to justice; but
441 8 | justice; but I see a virtue which is opposed to love~of pleasure,
442 8 | away thy opinion about that which appears to give~thee pain,
443 8 | of plants. So then that which is a~hindrance to the intelligence
444 8 | impeded. The things~however which are proper to the understanding
445 8 | or from any of the things which happen to men, but looking
446 8 | And what wilt thou find~which is sufficient reason for
447 8 | Nothing can happen to any man which is not a human accident,
448 8 | human accident, nor~to an ox which is not according to the
449 8 | of an ox, nor to a~vine which is not according to the
450 8 | of a vine, nor to a stone~which is not proper to a stone.
451 8 | common nature brings nothing which may not be borne by thee.~
452 8 | doing some~particular thing which seems to thee to be right,
453 8 | pleased too with the~things which are obstacles.~ Remember
454 8 | itself, if it does nothing which~it does not choose to do,
455 8 | deliberately? Therefore the mind which is free from~passions is
456 8 | has nothing more secure to which he can~fly for, refuge and
457 8 | cuttings from the things which they make. And~yet they
458 8 | yet they have places into which they can throw these shavings
459 8 | herself,~everything within her which appears to decay and to
460 8 | without nor wants a place into which she may cast that which
461 8 | which she may cast that which decays.~She is content then
462 8 | in concert with the air which~surrounds thee, but let
463 8 | harmony with~the intelligence which embraces all things. For
464 8 | wickedness~would be my harm, which God has not willed in order
465 8 | meets with any solid body~which stands in the way and intercepts
466 8 | collision with the obstacles which are in its~way; nor yet
467 8 | fixed and enlighten that which receives~it. For a body
468 9 | moved of himself to that which is contrary~to truth, for
469 9 | nature through the neglect~of which he is not able now to distinguish
470 9 | pleasure and possess the things which procure~pleasure, but the
471 9 | their share and the things which~cause pain. And further,
472 9 | afraid of some of the things which will happen in the world,
473 9 | respect to the~things towards which the universal nature is
474 9 | or honour and dishonour, which the~universal nature employs
475 9 | Providence,~according to which it moved from a certain
476 9 | principles of the things which~were to be, and having determined
477 9 | change of~this atmosphere which surrounds us. For this corruption
478 9 | too is~one of those things which nature wills. For such as
479 9 | other natural operations~which the seasons of thy life

485 9 | one earth of all things which are of an earthy nature,
486 9 | that have life.~ All things which participate in anything
487 9 | participate in anything which is common to them all~move
488 9 | them all~move towards that which is of the same kind with
489 9 | with themselves.~Everything which is earthy turns towards
490 9 | towards the earth, everything which~is liquid flows together,
491 9 | together, and everything which is of an aerial kind~does
492 9 | together~with all the fire which is here, that even every
493 9 | that even every substance which is~somewhat dry, is easily
494 9 | mingled with it~of that which is a hindrance to ignition.
495 9 | Accordingly then~everything also which participates in the common

498 9 | are souls, and that power which~brings them together is
