The mind must make the heart articulate, and the body the temple of the soul.

Consider also:

  1. “Yes, yes! let fancy sup That grislier banquet than old Atreus planned! Mind cannot fathom, nor the brain conceive, Nor soul assimilate, nor heart believe The horror of that Thing without a Name. Full on me, boasting, like Death’s hand it came, And struck me headlong.”
  2. “by a peculiar Ordinance of Heaven, and a Disposition occult within his Mind, is every Man protected from this Loss of his own Soul, until and unless he be by Choronzon disintegrated and dispersed beyond power of Will to repair; as when the Conflict within him, rending and burning, hath made his Mind utterly desert, and his Soul Madness.”
  3. To hell with this Verbotenism!
  4. “Multiplex est Deus noster (Our God is Manifold). Mark this Mystery Seven Comprehenedth the Secrets of Heaven and earth: Seven knitteth mans soul and body together (3, in soul, and 4 in body)”
  5. “we have hitherto written of man as composed of soul and body; but the Initiated Egyptians regarded themselves as being far from simply soul and body. They gave names to several human faculties, and postulated for each a possibility of separate existence.”
