'That is very probable.' All things which have a soul possess in themselves the principle of change, and in changing move according to fate and law; natures which have undergone lesser changes move on the surface; but those which have changed utterly for the worse, sink into Hades and the infernal world.

And in all great changes for good and evil which are produced either by the will of the soul or the influence of others, there is a change of place.

The good soul, which has intercourse with the divine nature, passes into a holier and better place; and the evil soul, as she grows worse, changes her place for the worse.

This,--as we declare to the youth who fancies that he is neglected of the Gods,--is the law of divine justice--the worse to the worse, the better to the better, like to like, in life and in death.

And from this law no man will ever boast that he has escaped.
