The meaning ofthis evolution is well explained by a passage om the Skeptic Sextus Empiricus:10
Some Stoics say that the word "soul" is used in two ways: on the one hand, to
designate
that which holds together the entire mixture of the body [this is what Marcus calls the pneuma, or vital breath] , and on the other, in a more proper sense, the guiding principle.

With mighty Nations for his underlings,
The great events with which old story rings 5
Seem vain and hollow; I find nothing great:
Nothing is left which I can venerate;
So that a doubt almost [1] within me springs
Of Providence, such
emptiness
at length
Seems at the heart of all things.

And cleaned the shining rails:
And, rank by rank, we soaped the plank,
And clattered with the pails.

Polybius tells us that one of the three
craters of the island has partly fallen down, while the larger of the

been
reported
concerning Empedocles.
