§4.3.5. But how will one soul still be yours, another this person’s and
another another’s? Will its lower part still belong to an individual, and
its higher part not to that individual, but to that which is above? If that is
the way it is, there will be Socrates whenever the soul of Socrates is in
a body, but he will perish5 exactly when he comes to be in the best state.25
In fact, no Being perishes, since even in the intelligible world the
intellects there, just because they are not divided as bodies are, are not
lost into a unity, but each abides in its own identity in differentiation
from the rest. So, the same applies to souls, too, in their turn, depending
as they do each on an intellect, being expressed principles10 of the intel-
lects, and being more diffused than they are, having in a way become
much from little, and being in contact with the little which is, in each
instance, less divided than they are. They want to be divided, even
though unable to proceed to a full state of division, preserving as they
do both identity and difference, and so each remains one, and all
together are one.
