Flying along, shall enter in the first,
 
And that they make no rivalries of strength! 10
 
Again, in ether can't exist a tree,
 
Nor clouds in ocean deeps, nor in the fields
 
Can fishes live, nor blood in timber be,
 
Nor sap in boulders: fixed and arranged
 
Where everything may grow and have its place. 15
 
Thus nature of mind cannot arise alone
 
Without the body, nor exist afar
 
From thews and blood. But if 'twere possible,
 
Much rather might this very power of mind
 
Be in the head, the shoulders or the heels, 20
 
And, born in any part soever, yet
 
In the same man, in the same vessel abide.
 
But since within this body even of ours
 
Stands fixed and appears arranged sure
 
Where soul and mind can each exist and grow, 25
 
Deny we must the more that they can have
 
Duration and birth, wholly outside the frame.
