So Anima told all that had happened to her, and the old woman said: "Thou hast married my nephew, my sister's son, and I fear she will never forgive thee. But pluck up courage, go to her and demand thy husband, and she'll have to give him up to thee if thou canst do all that she demands from thee.
"Anima mia," said the pupil of Machiavelli, disguising in the tenderest words the cruellest intentions, for one of his most cherished Italian proverbs was to the effect that there is no getting on with a mule or a woman unless you coax them, "Anima mia, soul of my being, you have already seen that Violante mopes herself to death here." "She, poor child! Oh, no!"
The soul or anima of the first three buildings is in their windows; but of the last three, in their walls. All these points I may for the present leave you to think over for yourselves, except one, to which I must ask yet for a few moments your further attention.

In the strange and often romantic psychology of the De Anima, and in the singular clothes- philosophy of the De Pallio, he appears as the precursor of Swedenborg and Teufelsdrueckh.
Humana autem anima rationalis est, quae mortalibus peccati poena tenebatur, ad hoc diminutionis redacta ut per conjecturas rerum visibilium ad intelligenda invisibilia niteretur; that is, "The human soul is still rational, but in such a manner that, being by the punishment of sin detained in the bonds of death, it is so far reduced that it can only endeavour to arrive at the knowledge of things invisible through the visible."
"If," he says, "we assume a difference between soul and spirit, and coin the word soulical as the antithesis of spiritual, we present his exact idea. The Greek word psyche, soul or life, when used as antithetical to pneuma, spirit, signifies that animating, formative, and thinking soul or anima which belongs to the animal, and which man, as animal, shares as his lower nature with other animals.
The incomparable Mahat-soul or Universe is then swallowed up by Sambhu, that Lord of all things, to whom the Yoga attributes of Anima, Laghima, Prapti, etc., naturally inhere, who is regarded as the Supreme and pure Effulgence that is Immutable.
