grc plotinus enneads

Πότερα δὲ λογισμῶι ψυχὴ χρῆται πρὶν ἐλθεῖν καὶ πάλιν αὖ ἐξελθοῦσα Ἢ ἐνταῦθα ὁ λογισμὸς ἐγγίγνεται ἐν ἀπόρωι ἤδη οὔσης καὶ φροντίδος πληρουμένης καὶ μᾶλλον ἀσθενούσης ἐλάττωσις γὰρ νοῦ εἰς αὐτάρκειαν τὸ λογισμοῦ δεῖσθαι ὥσπερ καὶ ἐν ταῖς τέχναις ὁ λογισμὸς ἀποροῦσι τοῖς τεχνίταις, ὅταν δὲ μὴ χαλεπὸν ἦι, κρατεῖ καὶ ἐργάζεται ἡ τέχνη.
