Philosophy established as principle of things: Water or abyss, dry substance or atoms or earth, spirit or air, and in the fourth place, light; Because these elements distinguished each other in the fact that they cannot exchange their nature but that all-here more, there less, here some of them only-meet and combine in a pleasant manner. Giordano B...
