Exempla

“Sed cum soliditas mundo⟳ quaereretur, solida autem omnia uno medio⟳ numquam, duobus semper copulen- tur, ita contigit, ut inter ignem atque terram aquam deus animamque poneret eaque inter se conpararet et proportione coniungeret, ut, quem ad modum ignis animae, sic anima aquae, quodque anima aquae, id aqua terrae proportione redderet.”

But since solidity was needed for the world, and solids never are coupled by means of one thing, but always of two, so it has been contingent, that between fire and earth god put water and air, and made these things answer to each other and conjoined them by proportion, so that, in what wise fire to air, thus air to water, and what air to water, that by proportion water would render to earth.

“...animum autem alii animam, ut fere nostri; declarat nomen: … Zenoni Stoico animus ignis videtur.”

...some would have the mind to be air, which is about what our people do; the name makes it evident: … The Stoic Zeno thinks that the mind is fire.

“Magnificat anima mea Dominum.”

My soul doth magnify the Lord.
