In the beginning he again repeats his reasons for writing on suchsubjects so late in life. "Being sick with ease, and having found thecondition of the Republic to be such that it has to be ruled by one man. I have thought it good, for the sake of the Republic, to write aboutphilosophy in a language that shall be understood by all our citizens, believing it to be a matter of great import to the glory of the Statethat things of such weight should be set forth in the Latintongue;"[293] not that th
...e philosophy should be set forth, but what thedifferent teachers said about it. His definition of eternity--or ratherthe want of definition--is singular: "There has been from all time aneternity which no measurement of time can describe. Its duration cannotbe understood--that there should have been a time before timeexisted. "[294] Then there comes an idea of the Godhead, escaping fromhim in the midst of his philosophy, modern, human, and truly Ciceronian:"Lo, it comes to pass that this god, of whom we are sure in our minds, and of whom we hold the very footprints on our souls, can never appearto us.
