Denique cum corpus nequeat perferre animai discidium, quin in taetro tabescat odore, quid dubitas quin ex imo penitusque coorta emanarit uti fumus diffusa animae vis, atque ideo tanta mutatum putre ruina conciderit corpus, penitus quia mota loco sunt fundamenta, foras manante anima usque per artus, perque viarum omnis flexus in corpore qui sunt, atque foramina? multimodis ut noscere possis dispertitam animae naturam exisse per artus et prius esse sibi distractam corpore in ipso, quam prolapsa foras enaret in aeris auras.
Again, since the body cannot endure tearing apart from the spirit without putrefying with a loathsome stench, why do you doubt that the strength of the spirit, after gathering together from its depths and inmost recesses, has oozed out already dispersed abroad like smoke, and that the reason why the body changing and crumbling in such ruin has collapsed altogether, is that its foundations to their inmost recesses have been moved from their place while the spirit was oozing out all through the limbs and through all the meandering passages and pores that are in the body? So that in many ways you may learn that the spirit was scattered abroad when it went out through the limbs, and had been torn all apart within the body itself, before it glided out and swam into the winds of the air.
