Dionysius's works are known for their complex and nuanced arguments, and this book provides readers with a comprehensive introduction to his ideas and philosophy. Whether you are a student of philosophy or simply interested in exploring the ideas of an influential ancient thinker, Dionysius is a must-read.Hence we shall only run over in a summary way, at present, some few of the works of an all-wise Providence; and after a little we shall, if God grant it, go over them more minutely, when we direct our discourse toward one who has the repute of greater learning. So, then, we have the ministry of the hands, by which all kinds of works are wrought, and all skilful professions practised, and which have all their various faculties furnished them, with a view to the discharge of one common function; and we have the shoulders, with their capacity for bearing burdens.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
