The six books of Proclus, the Platonic successor, on the theology of Plato (vol. 2 of 2)

Note 147 — Chapter XXIX

Thomas Taylor translation

Plato, in the 10th book of the Laws, distinguishes the genus of motions into ten species, viz. circulation about an immoveable centre, local transition, condensation, rarefaction, increase, decrease, generation, corruption, mutation or alteration, produced in another by another, and a mutation produced from a thing itself, both in itself, and in another. This last is the motion of an essence separate from bodies, and is the motion of soul.
