Another Fragment from the
Same.
Translated in the Same Epistle to Avitus.
“At the end and consummation of the world,
when souls and rational creatures shall have been sent forth as from
bolts and barriers,2066
2066 De quibusdam repagulis
atque carceribus. There is an allusion here to the race-course
and the mode of starting the chariots. | some of them walk
slowly on account of their slothful habits, others fly with rapid
flight on account of their diligence. And since all are possessed
of free-will, and may of their own accord admit either of good or evil,
the former will be in a worse condition than they are at present, while
the latter will advance to a better state of things; because different
conduct and varying wills will admit of a different condition in either
direction, i.e., angels may become men or demons, and again from the
latter they may rise to be men or angels.”E.C.F. INDEX & SEARCH
