To clear this Passage further, which I have quoted out of Cicero, and the sense I have given to it, we ought to consider that the Stoicks held an opinion that all Souls were Fire; and Balbus (who was one of them) taking it for granted, is told by Cotta that he was too forward in assuming so much ; for, says he, 'tis the probable Opinion that the vital Principle or Soul is not Breath only as most think, or Fire only as Stoicks think, but a Complex or Result of both; probabilius videtur, tale quiddam esse Animum, ut sit ex igne atque anima tempe- ratum.
