Joi. Neither of them can be true: and I do marvel that so gross an answer did come from thee. For seeing that the Soul, can much less sleep, when she hath ⟨image 113⟩put away the burden of th• body, then when she beareth about yet, the burden of the body, & doeth not sleep, when sh• is yet in the body, it followeth that she sleepeth much less, when she is delivered from th• body And that she doeth not sleep being in the body, it may be known by this, that in the time of waking, the body doth always, without rest & quiet, work, which actions do come from the soul. Ergo, it is manifest, that whiles that the body waketh, the soul sleepeth not.

All mans life is either waking, or rest: in none of them both, doeth the soul sleep. Ergo the soul doeth not sleep at all. Therefore sleep, longeth only to the body, & not to the soul. For when the soul beginneth ones to have life it is a perpetual Entesechia, coming from the everlasting & eternal fountain of goodness, the which perpetual Entesechiia, that is to say, unrequietable, & perpetual action and moving in the soul, if any man denieth, by that same reason he must denay the soul
