Again, men may have Knowledge in a way different from any of

those which have been now stated: for we constantly see a man's

state so differing by having and not using Knowledge, that he has

it in a sense and also has not; when a man is asleep, for

instance, or mad, or drunk: well, men under the actual operation

of passion are in exactly similar conditions; for anger, lust,

and some other such-like things, manifestly make changes even in

the body, and in some they even cause madness; it is plain then

that we must say the men of Imperfect Self-Control are in a state

similar to these.
