grc plotinus enneads

Συμπαθὲς ἄρα καὶ ὁμοιοπαθὲς δεῖ εἶναι καὶ ὕλης μιᾶς καὶ τὸ μὲν παθεῖν, τὸ δὲ γνῶναι, καὶ τοιοῦτον γενέσθαι τὸ πάθος, οἷον σώιζειν μέν τι τοῦ πεποιηκότος, μὴ μέντοι ταὐτὸν εἶναι, ἀλλὰ ἅτε μεταξὺ τοῦ πεποιηκότος καὶ ψυχῆς ὄν, τὸ πάθος ἔχειν μεταξὺ αἰσθητοῦ καὶ νοητοῦ κείμενον μέσον ἀνάλογον, συνάπτον πως τὰ ἄκρα ἀλλήλοις, δεκτικὸν ἅμα καὶ ἀπαγγελτικὸν ὑπάρχον, ἐπιτήδειον ὁμοιωθῆναι ἑκατέρωι.
