Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Three Selections From Plutarch's Genius of Sokrates: Who the Genii Are; The Dream of Timarchus; The Care of the Genii
Who the Gena Are from J; Plutarch's 'the Genius of Solrrates' Jaccount of their smoothness they may be set in motion at the very first touch. J Likewise the human Soul may be directed easier than any other instrument because she is held tense as with ropes by num berless desires. J Hence, as soon as any body's mental incidence affects her she receives the impulse to move in the direc tion of the thought. J All the passions and desires reach far down into the think ing portion of the Soul, so that at the very first tremor of the thought, they are, as it were, attracted to it, and pro ceed to innervate and draw the outer man.
