 2     I|        fall at any time~ Under our senses, nor be seized and seen~
 3     I|          that first body which our senses now~ Cannot perceive: That

 5     I|           man himself~ Against the senses by the senses fights,~ And
 6     I|          Against the senses by the senses fights,~ And hews at that
 7     I|         For, though he thinks~ The senses truly can perceive the fire,~
 8     I|        what~ More certain than our senses can there be~ Whereby to
 9     I|        aught~ Is that which to our senses seems its least,~ Whereby
10    II|         For far beneath the ken of senses lies~ The nature of those

15    II|          procreates~ From them the senses of live creatures all,~
16    II|    remember: that I have not said~ Senses are born, under conditions
17    II|          unite.~ ~ In first place, senses can't in body be~ Before
18    II|          Kindle the all-perceiving senses - they~ That keep and guard
19    II|         body,~ And kindle anew the senses almost gone.~ For by what
20   III|   gradually comes back~ To all his senses and recovers soul.~ Thus,
21   III|          soul, endure~ And use the senses. Verily, as the eye,~ Alone,
22   III|            without,~ The soul, the senses of the mind dissolve, -~
23   III|        spot,~ Even as he knows the senses too dissolve~ Each in its
24   III|        thought to be~ Endowed with senses five, - nor is there way~
25   III|           Have pictured souls with senses so endowed.~ But neither
26   III|           to pass, naught move our senses then -~ No, not if earth
27   III|         everywhere~ From these our senses. For if woe and ail~ Perchance
28   III|           motions that produce our senses -~ Since, when he's startled
29   III|         sleep, a man~ Collects his senses. Death is, then, to us~
30    IV| primordials be~ So far beneath our senses, and much less~ E'en than
31    IV|     confess~ With wondrous...~ THE SENSES AND MENTAL PICTURES~ ~ Bodies
32    IV|              Nor lightly think our senses everywhere~ Are tottering.
33    IV|       feigning to see~ What by the senses are not seen at all.~ For
34    IV|        Thou'lt find~ That from the senses first hath been create~
35    IV|      Concept of truth, nor can the senses be~ Rebutted. For criterion
36    IV|         What, then, than these our senses must there be~ Worthy a
37    IV|       prevail to contradict~ Those senses, sprung as reason wholly
38    IV|         wholly is~ From out of the senses? - For lest these be true,~
39    IV|             At any time unto these senses showed,~ The same is true.
