driven only by his lusts。 For the ignorant man is not only distracted in
various ways by external causes without ever gaining； the true acquiescence
of his spirit； but moreover lives； as it were unwitting of himself； and of
God； and of things； and as soon as he ceases to suffer； ceases also to be。
Whereas the wise man； in so far as he is regarded as such； is scarcely at
all disturbed in spirit； but； being conscious of himself； and of God； and of
things； by a certain eternal necessity； never ceases to be； but always
possesses true acquiescence of his spirit。
If the way which I have pointed out as leading to this result seems
exceedingly hard； it may nevertheless be discovered。 Needs must it be hard；
since it is so seldom found。 How would it be possible； if salvation were
ready to our hand； and could without great labour be found； that it should
be by almost all men neglected？ But all things excellent are as
difficult as they are rare。
