Plut. Mor., Of Fate 8 — Of Fate

Plut. Mor., Of Fate 8 — Of Fate, Plutarch; served verbatim

These then are the things which are comprised in Fate, to wit, contingent, possible, election, that which is in our power, Fortune, chance, and their adjuncts, as are the things signified by the words perhaps and peradventure; all which indeed are contained in Fate, yet none of them is fatal. It now remains, that we discourse of divine Providence, and show how it comprehends even Fate itself.

The Greek stands ready in the workroom; the English is served. Both faces will read together.
