This sentiment, he probably borrowed from Pythagoras and Plato, who argue the same sentiment, and divide this spirit into “intellectus, intelligentia, et natura”—­intellectual, intelligent, and natural.  Whence, “Ex hoc Deo, qui est mundi anima:  quasi decerptae particulae sunt vitae hominum et pecudum.” Or, “Omnia animalia ex quatuor elementis et divino spiritu constare manifestum est.  Trahunt enim a terra carnem, ab aqua humorem, ab aere anhelitum, ab igne fervorem, a divino spiritu ingenium.”—­Timeus, chap. 24, and Virgil’s Geor. b. 4, l. 220, Dryden’s trans. l. 322.

Pope alludes to the same opinion in these lines: 

“All are but parts of one stupendous whole. 
Whose body nature is, and God the soul.”

[15] The Jews long preserved this name in Samaritan letters to keep it
     from being known to strangers.  The modern Jews affirm that by this
     mysterious name, engraven on his rod, Moses performed the wonders
     recorded of him; that Jesus stole the name from the temple and put
     it into his thigh between the flesh and skin, and by its power
     accomplished the miracles attributed to him.  They think if they
     could pronounce the word correctly, the very heavens and earth
     would tremble, and angels be filled with terror.

[16] Plutarch says, “This title is not only proper but peculiar to
     God, because =He= alone is being; for mortals have no
     participation of true being, because that which begins and
     ends, and is constantly changing, is never one nor the
     same, nor in the same state.  The deity on whose temple this word
     was inscribed was called =Apollo=, Apollon, from a negative and
     pollus, many, because God is =one=, his nature simple, and
     uncompounded.”—­Vide, Clark’s Com.

[17] The same fact may be observed in other languages, for all people
     form language alike, in a way to correspond with their ideas.  The
     following hasty examples will illustrate this point.
