and
is
never
lost
in
this
degree.
It
is
embroiled
and
precipitated
j
one
wave
follows
another,
and
the
other
takes
it
up
and
crashes
it
by
its
precipitation.
Yet
this
water
finds
on
the
slope
of
the
mountain
certain
flat
places
where
it
takes
a
little
relaxation.
It
delights
in
the
clearness
of
its
waters
;
and
it
sees
that
its
falls,
its
course,
this
breaking
of
its
waves
upon
the
rocks,
have
served
to
render
it
more
pure.
It
finds
itself
delivered
from
its
noise
and
storms,
and
thinks
it
has
now
found
its
resting-
place
;
and
it
believes
this
the
more
readily
because
it
cannot
doubt
that
the
state
through
which
it
has
just
passed
has
greatly
purified
it,
for
it
sees
that
its
waters
are
clearer,
and
it
no
longer
perceives
the
disagreeable
odour
which
certain
stagnant
parts
had
given
to
it
on
the
top
of
the
mountain
;
it
has
even
acquired
a
certain
insight
into
its
own
condi-tion
;
it
has
seen
by
the
troubled
state
of
its
passions
(the
waves)
that
they
were
not
lost,
but
only
asleep.
As
when
it
was
descending
the
moun-tain,
on
its
way
to
this
level,
it
thought
it
was
.losing
its
way,
and
had
no
hope
of
recovering
its
lost
peace,
so
now
that
it
no
longer
hears
the
dash
