§12.30.1Ἓν φῶς ἡλίου, κἂν διείργηται τοίχοις, ὄρεσιν, ἄλλοις μυρίοις.
One light of the sun, even if it is interrupted by walls, mountains, and countless other things.
μία οὐσία κοινή, κἂν διείργηται ἰδίως ποιοῖς σώμασι μυρίοις.
One common substance, even if it is divided by countless individually qualified bodies.
μία ψυχή, κἂν φύσεσι διείργηται μυρίαις καὶ ἰδίαις περιγραφαῖς.
One soul, even if it is divided by countless natures and individual circumscriptions.
μία νοερὰ ψυχή, κἂν διακεκρίσθαι δοκῇ.
One intellectual soul, even if it seems to be separated.
τὰ μὲν οὖν ἄλλα μέρη τῶν εἰρημένων, οἷον πνεύματα καὶ ὑποκείμενα, ἀναίσθητα καὶ ἀνοικείωτα ἀλλήλοις· καίτοι κἀκεῖνα τὸ ἑνοῦν συνέχει καὶ τὸ ἐπὶ τὰ αὐτὰ βρῖθον.
Now the other parts of the aforementioned things, such as breaths and substrates, are devoid of sensation and have no affinity with one another; and yet, even those things are held together by that which unifies them and by their gravitation toward the same.
διάνοια δὲ ἰδίως ἐπὶ τὸ ὁμόφυλον τείνεται καὶ συνίσταται καὶ οὐ διείργεται τὸ κοινωνικὸν πάθος.
But the intellect peculiarly tends toward its own kind, and associates with it, and this social feeling is not divided.
