The philosophical and mathematical commentaries of Proclus on the first book of Euclid's elements (Vol. 2 of 2)

Note 122 — Concerning that which is Eternal, for the Purpose of demonstrating the Eternity of the World.

Thomas Taylor translation

Ὄντως in the original, which means indeed literally, truly.

So that by true life, we must understand life according to the truth of being; and so of the rest.
