To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
' Can any one rise above fortune, unless aided by Him ? He insj)ires grand and upright designs. In every good man he dwells. " But he adds, as if to show the struggle going on within, that He whom he had in the former part of the letter called the holy spirit was to him, as to the Athenians, an " unknown God. " " Quis deus incertum / est, " he says of the deity who dwells in every good man. With regard to man's moral nature requiring the aid of one who is strong enough to purify it, he speaks v...ery clearly. He sees the need of a change from evil to ffood in order to become what man should be. Yet he does not mention the need of pardon for sin that is past. In De dementia, i. G, this passage occurs : " Reflect, in this city, in which a crowd pours through the widest street without intermission, and like a rapid stream dashes against any obstacle that impedes its course ; where ac- commodation is required in three theatres at the same time ; where is consumed whatever grain is produced in all lands ; what a solitude and desolation were the result, if nothing were left but what a severe judge would pro- nounce free from fault.
