Body can't be in many Places at the same Time; but the Soul being a

all Parts of the Body, nor after the same Manner, how differently

understands

sees with the Eyes, smells with the Nose, it tastes in the Palate and
Tongue, and feels in all Parts of the Body which are adjoined to any
nervous Part: But it does not feel in the Hair, nor the Ends of the

Rain has showered its arrows of silver upon me
Seeking my heart; winds have roared and tossed me;
Music in long blue waves of sound has borne me

Of terrible warning, sifting the dust of death;
And here I lie.
