2:12 – How all things are vanishing swiftly, bodies themselves in the universe and the memorials of them in time; what is the character of all the things of sense, and most of all those which attract by the bait of pleasure or terrify by the threat of pain or are shouted abroad by vanity, how cheap, contemptible, soiled, corruptible, and moral: - these are for the faculty of mind to consider.
